[PATCH V5 10/16] perf, core: simplify need branch stack check

[kan.liang@intel.com]

From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@intel.com>

event->attr.branch_sample_type is non-zero no matter branch stack
is enabled explicitly or is enabled implicitly. we can use it to
replace intel_pmu_needs_lbr_smpl(). This avoids duplicating code
that implicitly enables the LBR.
