[PATCH] powerpc/perf: Fix PMU constraint check for EBB events

The power PMU group constraints includes check for EBB events
to make sure all events in a group must agree on EBB. This
will prevent scheduling EBB and non-EBB events together.
But in the existing check, settings for constraint mask and
value is interchanged. Patch fixes the same.
Before the patch, PMU selftest "cpu_event_pinned_vs_ebb_test"
fails with below in dmesg logs. This happens because EBB event
gets enabled along with a non-EBB cpu event.
