This is because of my experimental fix for bug 1950417

And one interesting fact is that this "per_event_excludes" was not executed in the past before the split. It looks like this got something with the upstream code as well. As this test is defined as:

TEST_GEN_PROGS := count_instructions l3_bank_test per_event_excludes

in powerpc/pmu/Makefile and is not being called by any other script inside this powerpc directory:
tools/testing/selftests/powerpc$ grep -r per_event_excludes *
pmu/Makefile:TEST_GEN_PROGS := count_instructions l3_bank_test per_event_excludes
pmu/Makefile:$(OUTPUT)/per_event_excludes: ../utils.c
pmu/.gitignore:per_event_excludes
pmu/per_event_excludes.c:static int per_event_excludes(void)
pmu/per_event_excludes.c: return test_harness(per_event_excludes, "per_event_excludes");
Binary file pmu/per_event_excludes matches
