commit e5c23779f93d45e39a52758ca593bd7e62e9b4be upstream. In the case where there is only a cycle counter available (i.e. PMCR_EL0.N is 0) and an event other than CPU cycles is opened, the open should fail as the event can never possibly be scheduled. However, the event validation when an event is opened is skipped when the group leader is opened. Fix this by always validating the group leader events.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
