hwpmc: fix event allocation on pre-Zen AMD CPUs
amd_allocate_pmc() chose the pmu-events code path whenever pmc_cpuid was
non-empty, and rejected any allocation lacking PMC_F_EV_PMU.
But pmc_cpuid is set for every AMD CPU, while the pmu-events tables only cover
Zen and later.
On older families (K8, Bobcat, Jaguar/16h, Bulldozer) libpmc finds no
pmu-events entry and falls back to the legacy path, which never sets
PMC_F_EV_PMU.
