Ian Rogers 69a0a42bdf perf pmu: Treat the msr pmu as software

[ Upstream commit 24852ef2e2d5c555c2da05baff112ea414b6e0f5 ]

The msr PMU is a software one, meaning msr events may be grouped
with events in a hardware context. As the msr PMU isn't marked as a
software PMU by perf_pmu__is_software, groups with the msr PMU in
are broken and the msr events placed in a different group. This
may lead to multiplexing errors where a hardware event isn't
counted while the msr event, such as tsc, is. Fix all of this by
marking the msr PMU as software, which agrees with the driver.

Before:
```
$ perf stat -e '{slots,tsc}' -a true
WARNING: events were regrouped to match PMUs

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

         1,750,335      slots
         4,243,557      tsc

       0.001456717 seconds time elapsed
```

After:
```
$ perf stat -e '{slots,tsc}' -a true
 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

        12,526,380      slots
         3,415,163      tsc

       0.001488360 seconds time elapsed
```
