ugh, this is really bad.. do we really want to support it? ;-)
I guess we need that for metrics..

what id you add the other hybrid pmu event? or just cycles?

I wonder if we do not find some reasonable generic way to process
this, porhaps we should make some early check that this evlist has
hybrid event and the move the implementation in some separated
hybrid-XXX object, so we don't confuse the code
