[PATCH v2 01/12] perf: arm_pmuv3: Avoid assigning fixed cycle counter with threshold

[Rob Herring (Arm)]

If the user has requested a counting threshold for the CPU cycles event,
then the fixed cycle counter can't be assigned as it lacks threshold
support. Currently, the thresholds will work or not randomly depending
on which counter the event is assigned.

While using thresholds for CPU cycles doesn't make much sense, it can be
useful for testing purposes.

Fixes: 816c26754447 ("arm64: perf: Add support for event counting threshold")

This should go to 6.10 and stable. It is also a dependency for ICNTR
support.

v2:
 - Add and use armv8pmu_event_get_threshold() helper.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240611155012.2286044-1-robh@kernel.org/
