Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo acb9f2d475 perf evsel: Provide meaningful warning when trying to use 'aux_output' on older kernels
Just like we do with the 'write_backwards' feature:

Before:

  # perf record -e {intel_pt/branch=0/,cycles/aux-output/ppp} uname
  Error:
  The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (cycles/aux-output/ppp).
  /bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.

  #

After:

  # perf record -e {intel_pt/branch=0/,cycles/aux-output/ppp} uname
  Error:
  The 'aux_output' feature is not supported, update the kernel.

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.
