perf pmu: Skip test on Arm64 when #slots is zero
Some Arm64 PMUs expose 'caps/slots' as 0 when the slot count is not
implemented, tool_pmu__read_event() currently returns false for this,
so metrics that reference #slots are reported as syntax error.
Since the commit
3a61fd866ef9 ("perf expr: Return -EINVAL for syntax
error in expr__find_ids()"), these syntax errors are populated as
failures and make the PMU metric test fail:
9.3: Parsing of PMU event table metrics:
--- start ---
...
Found metric 'backend_bound'
metric expr 100 * (stall_slot_backend / (#slots * cpu_cycles)) for backend_bound
parsing metric: 100 * (stall_slot_backend / (#slots * cpu_cycles))
Failure to read '#slots'
literal: #slots = nan
syntax error
Fail to parse metric or group `backend_bound'
...
---- end(-1) ----
9.3: Parsing of PMU event table metrics : FAILED!
This commit introduces a new function is_expected_broken_metric() to
identify broken metrics, and treats metrics containing "#slots" as
expected broken when #slots == 0 on Arm64 platforms.
