perf/x86/intel: Fix crash in icl_update_topdown_event()

[ Upstream commit b0823d5fbacb1c551d793cbfe7af24e0d1fa45ed ]

The perf_fuzzer found a hard-lockup crash on a RaptorLake machine:

  Oops: general protection fault, maybe for address 0xffff89aeceab400: 0000
  CPU: 23 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/23

    __perf_event_read+0xf9/0x210

CPUs 16-23 are E-core CPUs that don't support the perf metrics feature.
The icl_update_topdown_event() should not be invoked on these CPUs.

It's a regression of commit:

  f9bdf1f95339 ("perf/x86/intel: Avoid disable PMU if !cpuc->enabled in sample read")

The bug introduced by that commit is that the is_topdown_event() function
is mistakenly used to replace the is_topdown_count() call to check if the
topdown functions for the perf metrics feature should be invoked.

Fix it.
