Testcase stat_all_metrics.sh fails in powerpc:

98: perf all metrics test : FAILED!

Logs with verbose:

[command]# ./perf test 98 -vv

Based on above logs, we could see some of the hv-24x7 metric events fails,
and logs suggest to run the metric event with -a option.
This change happened after the commit a4b8cfcabb1d ("perf stat: Delay metric
parsing"), which delayed the metric parsing phase and now before metric parsing
phase perf tool identifies, whether target is system-wide or not. With this
change, perf_event_open will fails with workload monitoring for uncore events
as expected.

The perf all metric test case fails as some of the hv-24x7 metric events
may need bigger workload with system wide monitoring to get the data.
Fix this issue by changing current system wide check from true workload to
sleep 0.01 workload.

Result with the patch changes in powerpc:

98: perf all metrics test : Ok

Changelog:

v1->v2:
- Addressed review comments from Ian, by changing true workload
  to sleep workload in "perf all metric test". Rather then adding
  new system wide check with perf bench workload.
- Added Reviewed-by, Tested-by and Suggested-by tags.
