Hmm, but the change cited above is a userspace change so I don't think
we should be making driver-side changes for that. Furthermore, the commit
message there suggests that you should be using a different syntax,
introduced by 89efb029502d ("perf tools: Add support to parse event
group syntax") (which describes the grammer and has some examples too).
