[PATCH 1/2] perf stat: Fix segfault when counting armv8_pmu events

[Wei Li]

When executing perf stat with armv8_pmu events with a workload, it will
report a segfault as result.

After debugging, i found the root reason is that the xyarray fd is created
by evsel__open_per_thread() ignoring the cpu passed in
create_perf_stat_counter(), while the evsel' cpumap is assigned as the
corresponding PMU's cpumap in __add_event(). Thus, the xyarray fd is created
with ncpus of dummy cpumap and an out of bounds 'cpu' index will be used in
perf_evsel__close_fd_cpu().

To address this, add a flag to mark this situation and avoid using the
affinity technique when closing/enabling/disabling events.

Fixes: 7736627b865d ("perf stat: Use affinity for closing file descriptors")
Fixes: 704e2f5b700d ("perf stat: Use affinity for enabling/disabling events")
