perf evsel: Override attr->sample_period for non-libpfm4 events

bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I531X9

Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=10e99ae9b5da7e6a5304db3a926f6a460ee850d2



--------------------------------

commit 3606c0e1 upstream.

A previous patch preventing "attr->sample_period" values from being
overridden in pfm events changed a related behaviour in arm-spe.

Before said patch:

  perf record -c 10000 -e arm_spe_0// -- sleep 1

Would yield an SPE event with period=10000. After the patch, the period
in "-c 10000" was being ignored because the arm-spe code initializes
sample_period to a non-zero value.

This patch restores the previous behaviour for non-libpfm4 events.

Fixes: ae5dcc8a (“perf record: Prevent override of attr->sample_period for libpfm4 events”)
