perf/x86/intel: Fix memory corruption

Through:

  validate_event()
    x86_pmu.get_event_constraints(.idx=-1)
      tfa_get_event_constraints()
        dyn_constraint()

cpuc->constraint_list[-1] is used, which is an obvious out-of-bound access.

In this case, simply skip the TFA constraint code, there is no event
constraint with just PMC3, therefore the code will never result in the
empty set.

Fixes: 400816f6
