Nope, that's way before you get the fail. initcall_debug might get you
the right answer, but I suspect its the intel_uncore driver.

I see arch/x86/kernel/cpu/perf_event_intel_uncore.c:uncore_type_init()
do exactly what TJ says, its dynamically allocating struct attribute.

Now, let me try and trigger that locally, that should not be skylake
specific at all.
