On Pandaboard perf_event_open syscall fails with errno = 19 (ENODEV)
when trying to open perf counter with type PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE.

The code to reproduce the error is attached. I checked that it runs
successfully on Beagleboard, Sandy Bridge, Bulldozer systems, and even
on Pandaboard if I request software events (e.g. type =
PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE, config = PERF_COUNT_SW_CPU_CLOCK).

Linux Kernel (uname -a): Linux pandaboard 3.2.0-1418-omap4 #25-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Fri Aug 31 18:41:31 UTC 2012 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux
