This is almost identical to generated perf_pmu__find_events_table(),
except we return a pmu_metrics_table * (instead of a pmu_events_table *)
and also return the metric table member (instead of event table). But
the definitions are:

/* Struct used to make the PMU event table implementation opaque to
callers. */
struct pmu_events_table {
const struct compact_pmu_event *entries;
size_t length;
};

/* Struct used to make the PMU metric table implementation opaque to
callers. */
struct pmu_metrics_table {
const struct compact_pmu_event *entries;
size_t length;
};

Those structs are defined to be the same thing, so I am failing to see
the point in a) separate structure types b) why so much duplication

As for b), I know that they are generated and the python code may be
simpler this way (is it?), but still...

Thanks,
John
