perf/hw_breakpoint: Return EOPNOTSUPP for unsupported breakpoint type
Currently, __reserve_bp_slot() returns -ENOSPC for unsupported breakpoint types on the architecture. For example, powerpc does not support hardware instruction breakpoints. This causes the perf_skip BPF selftest to fail, as neither ENOENT nor EOPNOTSUPP is returned by perf_event_open for unsupported breakpoint types. As a result, the test that should be skipped for this arch is not correctly identified. To resolve this, hw_breakpoint_event_init() should exit early by checking for unsupported breakpoint types using hw_breakpoint_slots_cached() and return the appropriate error (-EOPNOTSUPP).
