When a counter is 0 it may or may not be skipped. For uncore counters it is common they are only valid on 1 logical CPU and all other CPUs should be skipped. The PMU's cpumask was used for the skip calculation, but that cpumask may not reflect user overrides. Similarly a counter on a core PMU may explicitly not request a CPU be gathered. If the counter on this CPU's value is 0 then the counter should be skipped as it wasn't requested. Switch from using the PMU cpumask to that associated with the evsel to support these cases. Avoid potential crash with --per-thread mode where config->aggr_get_id is NULL. Add some examples for the tool event 0 counter skipping.

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 reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
