I dislike this function but was carrying it forward, I think we can
get rid of it. The point of erroring is to not have core PMUs when
there are no online CPUs associated with it. For existing core PMUs
this just isn't something that can happen as otherwise what CPU are
you running on. For hybrid it can happen and we know we care because
the PMU's type is core. So why not change the error to be when the cpu
map is empty and the CPU is core? I'm going to assume that my logic is
sound and change the code in v4, but please complain.

Thanks,
Ian
