perf vendor events amd: Fix large metrics
There are cases where a metric requires more events than the number of
available counters. E.g. AMD Zen, Zen 2 and Zen 3 processors have four
data fabric counters but the "nps1_die_to_dram" metric has eight events.
By default, the constituent events are placed in a group and since the
events cannot be scheduled at the same time, the metric is not computed.
The "all metrics" test also fails because of this.
Use the NO_GROUP_EVENTS constraint for such metrics which anyway expect
the user to run perf with "--metric-no-group".
E.g.
$ sudo perf test -v 101
Before:
101: perf all metrics test :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 37131
Testing branch_misprediction_ratio
Testing all_remote_links_outbound
Testing nps1_die_to_dram
Metric 'nps1_die_to_dram' not printed in:
Error:
Invalid event (dram_channel_data_controller_4) in per-thread mode, enable system wide with '-a'.
