description
===========
Addresses an issue where, in the absence of a topdown metrics event
within a sampling group, the slots event was incorrectly bypassed as
the sampling leader when sample_read was enabled.

perf record -e '{slots,branches}:S' -c 10000 -vv sleep 1

In this case, the slots event should be sampled as leader but the
branches event is sampled in fact like the verbose output shows.

perf_event_attr:
  type                             4 (cpu)
  size                             168
  config                           0x400 (slots)
  sample_type                      IP|TID|TIME|READ|CPU|IDENTIFIER
  read_format                      ID|GROUP|LOST
  disabled                         1
  sample_id_all                    1
  exclude_guest                    1
------------------------------------------------------------
sys_perf_event_open: pid -1  cpu 0  group_fd -1  flags 0x8 = 5
------------------------------------------------------------
perf_event_attr:
  type                             0 (PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE)
  size                             168
  config                           0x4 (PERF_COUNT_HW_BRANCH_INSTRUCTIONS)
  { sample_period, sample_freq }   10000
  sample_type                      IP|TID|TIME|READ|CPU|IDENTIFIER
  read_format                      ID|GROUP|LOST
  sample_id_all                    1
  exclude_guest                    1

The sample period of slots event instead of branches event is reset to
0.

This fix ensures the slots event remains the leader under these
conditions.
