perf test: Switch basic bpf filtering test to use syscall tracepoint

BPF filtering tests can sometime fail. Running the test in verbose mode
shows the following:

  $ sudo perf test 42
  42: BPF filter                                                      :

  42.3: BPF prologue generation                                       : Skip

  BPF filter subtest 1: FAILED!

The statement above about the result being incorrect looks weird, and it
is due to that particular perf build missing commit 3e11300cdfd5f1
("perf test: Fix bpf test sample mismatch reporting"). In reality, due
to commit 4b04e0decd2518 ("perf test: Fix basic bpf filtering test"),
perf expects there to be 56*3 samples.

However, the number of samples we receive is going to be dependent on
where the probes are installed, which is dependent on where
do_epoll_wait gets inlined. On s390x, it looks like probes at all the
inlined locations are hit. But, that is not the case on ppc64le.

Fix this by switching the test to instead use the syscall tracepoint.
This ensures that we will only ever install a single event enabling us
to reliably determine the sample count.
