James Clark 20ebc4a649 perf test: Fix skipping branch stack sampling test
Commit f4a2aade68 ("perf tests powerpc: Fix branch stack sampling
test to include sanity check for branch filter") added a skip if certain
branch options aren't available.

But the change added both -b (--branch-any) and --branch-filter options
at the same time, which will always result in a failure on any platform
because the arguments can't be used together.

Fix this by removing -b (--branch-any) and leaving --branch-filter which
already specifies 'any'. Also add warning messages to the test and perf
tool.

Output on x86 before this fix:

   $ sudo ./perf test branch
   108: Check branch stack sampling         : Skip

After:

   $ sudo ./perf test branch
   108: Check branch stack sampling         : Ok

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.
