Subject: [PATCH 5.13 116/800] perf/x86/intel: Fix instructions:ppp support in Sapphire Rapids

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

commit 1d5c7880992a06679585e7e568cc679c0c5fd4f2 upstream.

Perf errors out when sampling instructions:ppp.

$ perf record -e instructions:ppp -- true
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument)
for event (instructions:ppp).

The instruction PDIR is only available on the fixed counter 0. The event
constraint has been updated to fixed0_constraint in
icl_get_event_constraints(). The Sapphire Rapids codes unconditionally
error out for the event which is not available on the GP counter 0.

Make the instructions:ppp an exception.
