Subject: [PATCH 5.4 080/129] ARC: perf: dont bail setup if pct irq missing in device-tree

From: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@...opsys.com>

commit feb92d7d3813456c11dce215b3421801a78a8986 upstream.

Current code inadventely bails if hardware supports sampling/overflow
interrupts, but the irq is missing from device tree.

|
| # perf stat -e cycles,instructions,major-faults,minor-faults ../hackbench
| Running with 10 groups 400 process
| Time: 0.921
|
| Performance counter stats for '../hackbench':
|
|   <not supported>      cycles
|   <not supported>      instructions
|                 0      major-faults
|              8679      minor-faults

This need not be as we can still do simple counting based perf stat.
This unborks perf on HSDK-4xD
