How about this fix?

void evlist__check_cpu_maps(struct evlist *evlist)
{
	struct evsel *evsel, *pos, *tmp;

	evlist__for_each_entry(evlist, evsel) {
		if (evsel->leader == evsel)
			continue;

		if (cpu_maps_matched(evsel->leader, evsel))
			continue;

		pr_warning("WARNING: event cpu maps are not fully matched, "
			   "disable group\n");

		for_each_group_member(pos, evsel->leader) {
			if (pos != evsel) {
				pos->leader = pos;
				pos->core.nr_members = 0;
			}
		}

		tmp = evsel->leader;
		tmp->leader = tmp;
		tmp->core.nr_members = 0;

		evsel->leader = evsel;
		evsel->core.nr_members = 0;
	}
}
