Now the get_cpuid__str function returns the MIDR string of the first
online cpu from the range of cpus asscociated with the PMU CORE device.

It can work when pass a perf_pmu entity to get_cpuid_str. However, it
will pass NULL via perf_pmu__find_map from metricgroup.c if we want to add
metric group for arm64. When pass NULL to get_cpuid_str, it can't return
the MIDR string.

There are three methods from userspace getting MIDR string for arm64:
1. parse sysfs(/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu?/regs/identification/midr_el1)
2. parse procfs(/proc/cpuinfo)
3. read the hwcaps(MIDR register) with getauxval(AT_HWCAP)

Perfer to select #3 as it is more simple and direct.
