Subject: [PATCH 1/6] perf list: Fix exit value

From: Stephane Eranian <eranian@...gle.com>

This patch fixes an issue with the exit value of perf list:

$ perf list; echo $?
129

perf list returns an error exit code even though there is no error.

There was a stray exit(129) in print_events(). This patch removes this
exit().

$ perf list; echo $?
0
