So it doesn't disable the 'group', it disables the 'grouping' of those
events, right? I.e. reading the WARNING, I thought that it would count
nothing, since it lists both groups as being disabled, but when I tested
I noticed that:

  [root@...enth ~]# perf stat -e '{power/energy-cores/,cycles},{instructions,power/energy-cores/}'
  WARNING: grouped events cpus do not match, disabling group:
    anon group { power/energy-cores/, cycles }
    anon group { instructions, power/energy-cores/ }
  ^C
   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
  
               12.62 Joules power/energy-cores/
         106,920,637        cycles
          80,228,899        instructions              #    0.75  insn per cycle
               12.62 Joules power/energy-cores/
  
        14.514476987 seconds time elapsed
  
  
  [root@...enth ~]#

  I.e. it counted the events, ungrouped, or am I missing something?

If I do:

  [root@...enth ~]# perf stat -e '{power/energy-cores/,power/energy-ram/},{instructions,cycles}' -a sleep 2
  
   Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
  
                1.73 Joules power/energy-cores/                                         
                0.92 Joules power/energy-ram/                                           
          12,191,658        instructions              #    0.67  insn per cycle         
          18,275,233        cycles                                                      
  
         2.001272492 seconds time elapsed
  
  [root@...enth ~]# 

It works, grouped. One observation, shouldn't we somehow show in the
output that the first two were indeed grouped, ditto for the second two?

Also, this needs improvement:

  [root@...enth ~]# perf stat -e '{power/energy-cores/,power/energy-ram/},{instructions,cycles}' sleep 2
  Error:
  The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument) for event (power/energy-cores/).
  /bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.
  
  [root@...enth ~]#

Probably stating that the power/ events can only be done on a system
wide mode or per-cpu?

I'm applying the patch now, with the above observations as committer
notes, we can improve this in follow on patch,
