perf/x86: Fix non-sampling (counting) events on certain x86 platforms

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit 1a97fea9db9e9b9c4839d4232dde9f505ff5b4cc ]

Perf doesn't work at perf stat for hardware events on certain x86 platforms:

 $perf stat -- sleep 1
 Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
             16.44 msec task-clock                       #    0.016 CPUs utilized
                 2      context-switches                 #  121.691 /sec
                 0      cpu-migrations                   #    0.000 /sec
                54      page-faults                      #    3.286 K/sec

The reason is that the check in x86_pmu_hw_config() for sampling events is
unexpectedly applied to counting events as well.

It should only impact x86 platforms with limit_period used for non-PEBS
events. For Intel platforms, it should only impact some older platforms,
e.g., HSW, BDW and NHM.
