Mark Rutland 61d0386273 arm_pmu: fix event CPU filtering 
Janne reports that perf has been broken on Apple M1 as of commit:

  bd27568117 ("perf: Rewrite core context handling")

That commit replaced the pmu::filter_match() callback with
pmu::filter(), whose return value has the opposite polarity, with true
implying events should be ignored rather than scheduled. While an
attempt was made to update the logic in armv8pmu_filter() and
armpmu_filter() accordingly, the return value remains inverted in a
couple of cases:

* If the arm_pmu does not have an arm_pmu::filter() callback,
  armpmu_filter() will always return whether the CPU is supported rather
  than whether the CPU is not supported.

  As a result, the perf core will not schedule events on supported CPUs,
  resulting in a loss of events. Additionally, the perf core will
  attempt to schedule events on unsupported CPUs, but this will be
  rejected by armpmu_add(), which may result in a loss of events from
  other PMUs on those unsupported CPUs.

* If the arm_pmu does have an arm_pmu::filter() callback, and
  armpmu_filter() is called on a CPU which is not supported by the
  arm_pmu, armpmu_filter() will return false rather than true.

  As a result, the perf core will attempt to schedule events on
  unsupported CPUs, but this will be rejected by armpmu_add(), which may
  result in a loss of events from other PMUs on those unsupported CPUs.

This means a loss of events can be seen with any arm_pmu driver, but
with the ARMv8 PMUv3 driver (which is the only arm_pmu driver with an
arm_pmu::filter() callback) the event loss will be more limited and may
go unnoticed, which is how this issue evaded testing so far.

Fix the CPU filtering by performing this consistently in
armpmu_filter(), and remove the redundant arm_pmu::filter() callback and
armv8pmu_filter() implementation.

Commit bd27568117 also silently removed the CHAIN event filtering from
armv8pmu_filter(), which will be addressed by a separate patch without
using the filter callback.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
