Levi Yun b77f8c36ce perf stat: Stop repeating when ref_perf_stat() returns -1
Exit when run_perf_stat() returns an error to avoid continuously
repeating the same error message. It's not expected that COUNTER_FATAL
or internal errors are recoverable so there's no point in retrying.

This fixes the following flood of error messages for permission issues,
for example when perf_event_paranoid==3:
  perf stat -r 1044 -- false

  Error:
  Access to performance monitoring and observability operations is limited.
  ...
  Error:
  Access to performance monitoring and observability operations is limited.
  ...
  (repeating for 1044 times).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
