    I rethought it. I want to change the ScaleUnit to "1MPKI" and keep the MetricExpr multiplied by 1000,
    so that the "MetricExpr" expresses the value of per kilo instruciton, which can be consistent with the
    description in "BriefDescription". Like:
    {
    "MetricExpr": "DTLB_WALK / INST_RETIRED * 1000",
    "BriefDescription": "The rate of TLB Walks per kilo instructions for data accesses",
    "MetricGroup": "TLB",
    "MetricName": "dtlb_mpki",
    "ScaleUnit": "1MPKI"
    },


    In addition, I think it is more reasonable for ScaleUnit to have a default scale factor of 1 when there
    is no number. I want to try to fix this bug.

    Ian, what's your opnion?
