perf evsel: Override attr->sample_period for non-libpfm4 events
commit 3606c0e1a1050d397ad759a62607e419fd8b0ccb upstream.
A previous patch preventing "attr->sample_period" values from being
overridden in pfm events changed a related behaviour in arm-spe.
Before said patch:
perf record -c 10000 -e arm_spe_0// -- sleep 1
Would yield an SPE event with period=10000. After the patch, the period
in "-c 10000" was being ignored because the arm-spe code initializes
sample_period to a non-zero value.
This patch restores the previous behaviour for non-libpfm4 events.
Fixes: ae5dcc8abe31 (“perf record: Prevent override of attr->sample_period for libpfm4 events”)
