PMU CORE devices are identified using sysfs filename cpu, however on some platforms(like arm/arm64), PMU CORE sysfs name is not cpu. Hence cpu cannot be used to differentiate PMU CORE/UNCORE devices.
commit: 66ec1191 ("perf pmu: Unbreak perf record for arm/arm64 with events with explicit PMU") has introduced pmu->is_uncore, which is set to PMU UNCORE devices only. Adding changes to use pmu->is_uncore to identify UNCORE devices.
