[PATCH 4.14 31/34] perf/x86/intel: Fix memory corruption

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>

commit ede271b059463731cbd6dffe55ffd70d7dbe8392 upstream.

Through:

validate_event()
x86_pmu.get_event_constraints(.idx=-1)
tfa_get_event_constraints()
dyn_constraint()

cpuc->constraint_list[-1] is used, which is an obvious out-of-bound access.

In this case, simply skip the TFA constraint code, there is no event
constraint with just PMC3, therefore the code will never result in the
empty set.

Fixes: 400816f60c54 ("perf/x86/intel: Implement support for TSX Force Abort")
