perf intel-pt: Fix 'CPU too large' error



In some cases, the number of cpus (nr_cpus_online) is confused with the
maximum cpu number (nr_cpus_avail), which results in the error in the
example below:

Example on system with 8 cpus:

 Before:
   # echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
   # ./perf record --kcore -e intel_pt// taskset --cpu-list 7 uname
   Linux
   [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
   [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.147 MB perf.data ]
   # ./perf script --itrace=e
   Requested CPU 7 too large. Consider raising MAX_NR_CPUS
   0x25908 [0x8]: failed to process type: 68 [Invalid argument]

 After:
   # ./perf script --itrace=e
   #

Fixes: 8c727469 ("perf machine: Replace MAX_NR_CPUS with perf_env::nr_cpus_online")
Fixes: 7df4e36a ("perf session: Replace MAX_NR_CPUS with perf_env::nr_cpus_online")
