The "Simple expression parser" test fails on powerpc
as below:

parsing metric: #system_tsc_freq
Unrecognized literal '#system_tsc_freq'literal: #system_tsc_freq = nan
syntax error
FAILED tests/expr.c:247 #system_tsc_freq
---- end(-1) ----
7: Simple expression parser  : FAILED!

In the test, system_tsc_freq is checked as below:

if (is_intel)
   TEST_ASSERT_VAL("#system_tsc_freq > 0", val > 0);
else

But commit 609aa2667f67 ("perf tool_pmu: Switch to standard
pmu functions and json descriptions")' changed condition in

Probably need to put it as Fixes: tag.

tool_pmu__skip_event so that system_tsc_freq event should
only appear on x86

+#if !defined(__i386__) && !defined(__x86_64__)
+       /* The system_tsc_freq event should only appear on x86. */
+       if (strcasecmp(name, "system_tsc_freq") == 0)
+               return true;
+#endif

After this commit, the testcase breaks for expr__parse of
system_tsc_freq in powerpc case. Fix the testcase to have
complete system_tsc_freq test within "is_intel" check.

Ian, are you ok with this?

Thanks,
Namhyung

Hi Ian

If the change looks good to you, I will send a V2 with Fixes tag added. Please share your review comments

Hi James, Thomas

Looking for help to test since in non-intel platform, this test will fail without the patch

Thanks
Athira
