[PATCH] perf/list: Fix s390 counter long description for L1D_RO_EXCL_WRITES

[Thomas Richter]

Command
  # ./perf list --long-desc pmu
lists the long description of the available counters. For counter
named L1D_RO_EXCL_WRITES on machine types 3906 and 3907 the long
description contains the counter number 'Counter:128 Name:'
prefix. This is wrong.

The fix changes the description text and removes this prefix.

Output before:

[root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf list --long-desc pmu
 ...
 L1D_ONDRAWER_L4_SOURCED_WRITES
  [A directory write to the Level-1 Data cache directory where the
   returned cache line was sourced from On-Drawer Level-4 cache]

 L1D_RO_EXCL_WRITES
  [Counter:128 Name:L1D_RO_EXCL_WRITES A directory write to the Level-1
   Data cache where the line was originally in a Read-Only state in the
   cache but has been updated to be in the Exclusive state that allows
   stores to the cache line]

 ...

Output after:

[root@m35lp76 perf]# ./perf list --long-desc pmu
 ...
 L1D_ONDRAWER_L4_SOURCED_WRITES
  [A directory write to the Level-1 Data cache directory where the
   returned cache line was sourced from On-Drawer Level-4 cache]

 L1D_RO_EXCL_WRITES
  [L1D_RO_EXCL_WRITES A directory write to the Level-1
   Data cache where the line was originally in a Read-Only state in the
   cache but has been updated to be in the Exclusive state that allows
   stores to the cache line]
