Peter Zijlstra 92c9a3897a perf/x86/intel: Fix memory corruption
commit ede271b059 upstream.

Through:

  validate_event()
    x86_pmu.get_event_constraints(.idx=-1)
      tfa_get_event_constraints()
        dyn_constraint()

cpuc->constraint_list[-1] is used, which is an obvious out-of-bound access.

In this case, simply skip the TFA constraint code, there is no event
constraint with just PMC3, therefore the code will never result in the
empty set.

Fixes: 400816f60c ("perf/x86/intel: Implement support for TSX Force Abort")

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.
