[PATCH 5.19 180/192] perf stat: Fix L2 Topdown metrics disappear for raw events

[ Upstream commit f0c86a2bae4fd12bfa8bad4d43fb59fb498cdd14 ]
In perf/Documentation/perf-stat.txt, for "--td-level" the default "0" means
the max level that the current hardware support.
So we need initialize the stat_config.topdown_level to TOPDOWN_MAX_LEVEL
when “--td-level=0” or no “--td-level” option. Otherwise, for the
hardware with a max level is 2, the 2nd level metrics disappear for raw
events in this case.
The issue cannot be observed for the perf stat default or "--topdown"
options. This commit fixes the raw events issue and removes the
duplicated code for the perf stat default.
Before:
