Subject[PATCH V2 6/8] perf/x86/intel: Disable sampling read slots and topdown
Date
From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@linux.intel.com>

The slots event supports sampling. Users may sampling read slots and
metrics events, e.g perf record -e '{slots, topdown-retiring}:S'.
But the metrics event will reset the fixed counter 3 which will impact
the sampling of the slots event.

Add specific validate_group() support to reject the case and error out
for Icelake.

An alternative fix may unconditionally disable SLOTS sampling. But it's
not a decent fix. Because users may want to only sampling slot events
without topdown metrics event.
