On the HiSilicon platform, there is one ETM per logic core.
When setting up SMT, not every process has an ETM. So the path
".../cs_etm/cpux/trcidr/trcidr0" does not exist, the function
perf_pmu__scan_file() return an error. However, the command
'perf record' will returns silently and don't print.

After this patch, log a error when read fails that makes it easy
for users to debug.

  root@localhost:/# perf record -e /cs_etm/@ultra_smb0/ -C 3 uname -a
  cs_etm: can't read file cpu3/trcidr/trcidr0
  root@localhost:/#
