perf stat: handle ENXIO error for perf_event_open
perf stat on PPC currently fails to run:
$ perf stat -- sleep 1
Error: open_counter returned with 6 (No such device or address). /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
Fatal: Not all events could be opened.
The problem is that until 2.6.37 (behavior changed with commit b0a873e)
perf on PPC returns ENXIO when hw_perf_event_init() fails. With this
patch we get the expected behavior:
$ perf stat -v -- sleep 1
