    perf stat: Failure with "Operation not supported" · 38f6ae1e

    perf stat is failing on PowerPC:
    
      Error: open_counter returned with 95 (Operation not supported). /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.
    
      Fatal: Not all events could be opened.
    
    commit 370faf1d (perf stat: Fail softly on unsupported events)
    added a check for failure returning ENOENT, but the POWER backend
    returns EOPNOTSUPP. It looks like alpha, blackfin and mips do the
    same.
    
    With the patch applied, things work as expected:
