[PATCH 2/6] perf/x86/lbr: Unify LBR_INFO registers exposure check condition

From: Like Xu
Date: Fri Jul 31 2020 - 03:46:17 EST


Architectural LBR has IA32_LBR_x_INFO instead of LBR_FORMAT_INFO_x
to hold metadata for the operation, including mispredict, TSX, and
elapsed cycle time information.

The x86_pmu.lbr_info will be assigned in intel_pmu_?_lbr_init_?(),
it's safe to expose LBR_INFO in the x86_perf_get_lbr(), instead of
relying solely on 'lbr_format == LBR_FORMAT_INFO' check.
