You had a chance to review it before :)

I was asked by ACME to use here the missing feature detection pattern
and to treat the flag just as a new feature like perf_event_attr new
attributes.

Nice catch. This function was introduced by commit 
c09ec622629eeb4b7877646a42852e7156363425 ('perf evlist: Add 
can_select_event() method') by Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@...el.com>
and it seems it was never used by perf tools.
Is it available to some outside tree perf tools ?


Thanks for the review.
