Public bug reported:

Ubuntu currently sets CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_AMD_UNCORE=m for distro
kernels.

However, unlike plug and play devices, there is no way to load uncore module 
when user tries to use uncore event.
Also, a primary motivation to add module support in uncore driver was to ease 
development (https://git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/05485745ad482).

So, ask ubuntu to switch to CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS_AMD_UNCORE=y.
