Subject: [PATCH 1/8] perf/x86/intel: Fix memory corruption
Patch-mainline: v5.1-rc1
Git-commit: ede271b059463731cbd6dffe55ffd70d7dbe8392
References: bsc#1121805

Through:

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

We use cpuc->constraint_list[-1], 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.
