[PATCH v2 20/32] perf/x86/intel/cqm: handle inherit event and inherit_stat flag

[David Carrillo-Cisneros]

Since inherited events are part of the same cqm cache group, they share the
RMID and therefore they cannot provide the granularity required by
inherit_stats. Changing this would in the current approach would require to
create a subtree of monrs for each parent event, with its inherited events
as descendats, a potential improvement for future patches.
