Kim Phillips c8fe99d070 perf/amd/uncore: Set all slices and threads to restore perf stat -a behaviour
Commit 2f217d58a8 ("perf/x86/amd/uncore: Set the thread mask for
F17h L3 PMCs") inadvertently changed the uncore driver's behaviour
wrt perf tool invocations with or without a CPU list, specified with
-C / --cpu=.

Change the behaviour of the driver to assume the former all-cpu (-a)
case, which is the more commonly desired default.  This fixes
'-a -A' invocations without explicit cpu lists (-C) to not count
L3 events only on behalf of the first thread of the first core
in the L3 domain.

BEFORE:

Activity performed by the first thread of the last core (CPU#43) in
CPU#40's L3 domain is not reported by CPU#40:

sudo perf stat -a -A -e l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses taskset -c 43 perf bench mem memcpy -s 32mb -l 100 -f default
...
CPU36                 21,835      l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses
CPU40                 87,066      l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses
CPU44                 17,360      l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses
...

AFTER:

The L3 domain activity is now reported by CPU#40:

sudo perf stat -a -A -e l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses taskset -c 43 perf bench mem memcpy -s 32mb -l 100 -f default
...
CPU36                354,891      l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses
CPU40              1,780,870      l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses
CPU44                315,062      l3_request_g1.caching_l3_cache_accesses
...
