  s390/cpum_cf: Deny all sampling events by counter PMU (2025-08-28 16:47:58 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
s390 fixes for 6.17-rc6

- ptep_modify_prot_start() may be called in a loop, which might lead
  to the preempt_count overflow due to the unnecessary preemption
  disabling. Do not disable preemption to prevent the overflow

- Events of type PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE are not tested for sampling and
  return -EOPNOTSUPP eventually. Instead, deny all sampling events by
  CPUMF counter facility and return -ENOENT to allow other PMUs to be
  tried

- The PAI PMU driver returns -EINVAL if an event out of its range.
  That aborts a search for an alternative PMU driver. Instead, return
  -ENOENT to allow other PMUs to be tried
