Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] perf test: Use generic event for expand_libpfm_events()

I found that the UNHALTED_CORE_CYCLES event is only available in the
Intel machines and it makes other vendors/archs fail on the test.  As
libpfm4 can parse the generic events like cycles, let's use them.

Fixes: 40b74c30ffb9 ("perf test: Add expand cgroup event test")
