Subject: [PATCH 5.15 037/172] x86/perf: Avoid warning for Arch LBR without XSAVE

From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

[ Upstream commit 8c16dc047b5dd8f7b3bf4584fa75733ea0dde7dc ]

Some hypervisors support Arch LBR, but without the LBR XSAVE support.
The current Arch LBR init code prints a warning when the xsave size (0) is
unexpected. Avoid printing the warning for the "no LBR XSAVE" case.
