[ Upstream commit f75e7d73bdf73f07b0701a6d21c111ef5d9021dd ]
On systems without any specific PMU driver support registered, running
'perf record' with —intr-regs will crash ( perf record -I <workload> ).
The relevant portion from crash logs and Call Trace:

When perf record session is started with "-I" option, capturing registers
on each sample calls is_sier_available() to check for the
SIER (Sample Instruction Event Register) availability in the platform.
This function in core-book3s accesses 'ppmu->flags'. If a platform specific
PMU driver is not registered, ppmu is set to NULL and accessing its
members results in a crash. Fix the crash by returning false in
is_sier_available() if ppmu is not set.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
