Thresh compare bits for a event is used to program thresh compare
field in Monitor Mode Control Register A (MMCRA: 8-18 bits for power10).
When scheduling events as a group, all events in that group should
match value in threshold bits. Otherwise event open for the sibling
events should fail. But in the current code, incase thresh compare bits are
not valid, we are not failing in group_constraint function which can result
in invalid group schduling.
Fix the issue by returning -1 incase event is threshold and threshold
compare value is not valid in group_constraint function.
Patch also fixes the p10_thresh_cmp_val function to return -1,
incase threshold bits are not valid and changes corresponding check in
is_thresh_cmp_valid function to return false only when the thresh_cmp
value is less then 0.
Thresh control bits in the event code is used to program thresh_ctl
field in Monitor Mode Control Register A (MMCRA: 48-55). In below example,
the scheduling of group events PM_MRK_INST_CMPL (3534401e0) and
PM_THRESH_MET (34340101ec) is expected to fail as both event
request different thresh control bits.
Result before the patch changes:

Result after the patch changes:
