Title:
  [UBUNTU 20.04] Deflate counters reported by lscpumf are not valid or
  available with perf

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  ---Problem Description---
  ubuntu 20.04: perf on z15: some counters reported with lscpumf are not usable 
with perf stat -e
   
  ---uname output---
  Linux ubu204 5.4.0-26-generic #30-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 20 16:57:22 UTC 2020 
s390x s390x s390x GNU/Linux
   
  Machine Type = z15 8561 
   
  ---Steps to Reproduce---
   lscpumf -c gives a list of available counters, but a few of them are not 
usable: DFLT_ACCESS,DFLT_CYCLES,DFLT_CC,DFLT_CCERROR
  perf list is also not offering these counters.

  
  A solution will be a backport to 20.04, and tried to made available for next 
SRU , code needed before 06-12. 

  Addl Info from Dev:

  Both patches appended apply without warning and the compilation showed
  no error.

z15
