Subject: [PATCH 3/3] perf/x86/intel/uncore: Reduce the number of CBOX counters

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@...ux.intel.com>

An oops is triggered by the fuzzy test.

[  327.853081] unchecked MSR access error: RDMSR from 0x70c at rIP:
0xffffffffc082c820 (uncore_msr_read_counter+0x10/0x50 [intel_uncore])
[  327.853083] Call Trace:
[  327.853085]  <IRQ>
[  327.853089]  uncore_pmu_event_start+0x85/0x170 [intel_uncore]
[  327.853093]  uncore_pmu_event_add+0x1a4/0x410 [intel_uncore]
[  327.853097]  ? event_sched_in.isra.118+0xca/0x240

There are 2 GP counters for each CBOX, but the current code claims 4
counters. Accessing the invalid registers triggers the oops.
