perf/x86/intel: Allow to setup LBR for counting event for BPF

commit ef493f4b122d6b14a6de111d1acac1eab1d673b0 upstream.

The BPF subsystem may capture LBR data on a counting event. However, the
current implementation assumes that LBR can/should only be used with
sampling events.

For instance, retsnoop tool ([0]) makes an extensive use of this
functionality and sets up perf event as follows:

	struct perf_event_attr attr;

	memset(&attr, 0, sizeof(attr));
	attr.size = sizeof(attr);
	attr.type = PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE;
	attr.config = PERF_COUNT_HW_CPU_CYCLES;
	attr.sample_type = PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_STACK;
	attr.branch_sample_type = PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_KERNEL;

To limit the LBR for a sampling event is to avoid unnecessary branch
stack setup for a counting event in the sample read. Because LBR is only
read in the sampling event's overflow.

Although in most cases LBR is used in sampling, there is no HW limit to
bind LBR to the sampling mode. Allow an LBR setup for a counting event
unless in the sample read mode.
