Subject: [BUG] perf report: bogus event group name reported

Hi,

Testing event group in sampling mode and finding
issues on the reporting side:

$ perf record --group -e 'grp1{cycles,instructions}' noploop 1
$ perf report --group  --stdio
...
# group: M^B{cycles,instructions}
             ^^^^ broken group name

# ========
#
# Samples: 8K of event '[binfmt_misc] { cycles, instructions }'
                                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ broken event group name

# Event count (approx.): 7024115127
