Jack Henschel 49836f7811 perf parser: Improve error message for PMU address filters
This is the second version of a patch that improves the error message of
the perf events parser when the PMU hardware does not support address
filters.

Previously, the perf returned the following error:

  $ perf record -e intel_pt// --filter 'filter sys_write'
  --filter option should follow a -e tracepoint or HW tracer option

This implies there is some syntax error present in the command line,
which is not true. Rather, notify the user that the CPU does not have
support for this feature.

For example, Intel chips based on the Broadwell micro-archticture have
the Intel PT PMU, but do not support address filtering.

Now, perf prints the following error message:

  $ perf record -e intel_pt// --filter 'filter sys_write'
  This CPU does not support address filtering

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
