The below error is observed on Ice Lake VM.
$ perf stat
Error:
The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument)
for event (slots).
/bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.
In a virtualization env, the Topdown metrics and the slots event haven't
been supported yet. The guest CPUID doesn't enumerate them. However, the
current kernel unconditionally exposes the slots event and the Topdown
metrics events to sysfs, which misleads the perf tool and triggers the
error.
Hide the perf-metrics topdown events and the slots event if the
perf-metrics feature is not enumerated.
The big core of a hybrid platform can also supports the perf-metrics
feature. Fix the hybrid platform as well.

Changes since V1:
- Rebase on top of the 6.7-rc
- Use the intel_cap.perf_metrics to repace the slots event to check
the enumeration of the perf metrics feature
