Subject: [PATCH 1/4] perf vendor events arm64: Remove L1D_CACHE_LMISS from AmpereOne list

amperene/cache.json file tried to include L1D_CACHE_LMISS while it
doesn't exist in common-and-microarch.json. While this bug doesn't seem to
cause issue in newer kernels with jevents.py script, it prevents building
older perf tools with the backported patch.

jevents.py needs to be improved so it errors on these events which
cannot be fixed up, like it used to. I'll look to do that when I get a
chance.

Fwiw, newer perf tool on old kernel should always be fine. But I
understand that if you are trying to build a tree with backports in
it...
