I have started rebase work here:

https://github.com/hisilicon/kernel-dev/commits/private-topic-perf-5.7-sys-pmu-events-v2

Without this patch, I get this spewed for metric events:

assertion failed at util/parse-events.c:1637

However, if there was a problem on mainline, I would expect some other
reports now.

Thanks,
John
