CPU Ref Cycles in unused

[dave-tucker]

What would you like to be added?

In working on #1398 I found that there are a number of unused eBPF maps.

See here: https://github.com/sustainable-computing-io/kepler/blob/main/bpfassets/bcc/bcc.c#L217

That the variable on_cpu_avg_freq is not used, therefore the function get_on_cpu_avg_freq and the map cpu_freq_array are also unused.

Following that through, the same is then true of on_cpu_ref_cycles_delta, which gets populated by get_on_cpu_ref_cycles and uses the maps cpu_ref_cycles and cpu_ref_cycles_hc_reader.

In addition, the global variables HZ and CPU_REF_FREQ are also unused. N.B - SAMPLE_RATE wasn't being correctly populated before #1398 but it is now.

Before I remove all of this unused code it would be excellent to get some clarification on whether it is intended to be used or not.

Why is this needed?

In particular, the perf event array cpu_ref_cycles_hc_reader is populated by a hardware perf event and it's my understanding that these are a scarce resource. If we aren't intending to use it, then we should not open a perf event of this type/event.
