In addition to returning nr_caps, cache it locally in struct perf_pmu.
Similarly, cache status of whether caps sysfs has already been parsed
or not. These will help to avoid parsing sysfs every time the function
gets called.

These fields are per pmu. Static variable won't help :) And they are
used in subsequent patches as well.
Thanks,

If they are just used for the cache purpose, I don't think we need to
add the variables in the struct perf_pmu.
A static variable should be good enough. See sysctl__nmi_watchdog_enabled().
