mainlining shenanigans

Some metrics (such as DRAM_BW_Use) consists of uncore events and
duration_time. For uncore events, counter->core.system_wide is true. But
for duration_time, counter->core.system_wide is false so
target.system_wide is set to false.
Then 'enable_on_exec' is set in perf_event_attr of uncore event. Kernel
will return error when trying to open the uncore event.
This patch skips the duration_time in setup_system_wide then
target.system_wide will be set to true for the evlist of uncore events +
duration_time.
Before (tested on skylake desktop):
# perf stat -M DRAM_BW_Use -- sleep 1
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (arb/event=0x84,umask=0x1/).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.
After:
# perf stat -M DRAM_BW_Use -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
169 arb/event=0x84,umask=0x1/ # 0.00 DRAM_BW_Use
40,427 arb/event=0x81,umask=0x1/
1,000,902,197 ns duration_time
1.000902197 seconds time elapsed

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.
