powerpc/hv-gpci: Fix the H_GET_PERF_COUNTER_INFO hcall return value checks
[ Upstream commit ad86d7ee43b22aa2ed60fb982ae94b285c1be671 ]
Running event hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/
in one of the system throws below error:
---Logs---
# perf list | grep hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles

Warning:

<not supported> hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/

The above error is because of the hcall failure as required
permission "Enable Performance Information Collection" is not set.
Based on current code, single_gpci_request function did not check the
error type incase hcall fails and by default returns EINVAL. But we can
have other reasons for hcall failures like H_AUTHORITY/H_PARAMETER with
detail_rc as GEN_BUF_TOO_SMALL, for which we need to act accordingly.
Fix this issue by adding new checks in the single_gpci_request and
h_gpci_event_init functions.
Result after fix patch changes:
# perf stat -e hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/ sleep 2
Error:
No permission to enable hv_gpci/dispatch_timebase_by_processor_processor_time_in_timebase_cycles,phys_processor_idx=0/ event.
