Since the kernels CONFIG_PERF_COUNTERS config option
"""has been obsoleted by the PERF_EVENTS
config option - please see that one for details.

It has no effect on the kernel whether you enable
it or not, it is a compatibility placeholdera
""" according to init/Kconfig
we can drop this from the error message and just rely on
CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS only.

This patch thus drops CONFIG_PERF_COUNTERS from the error message
(and also removes the unnecessary translation of the config options).
