It isn't so much that the code path is different, after a24d9d9dc096
we prefer events defined in sysfs/json over legacy events, as that
exists for "cpu-cycles" then we get the test failures. Using "cycles"
is a fix purely because /sys/devices/cpu_core/events/cycles doesn't
exist, but this is somewhat arbitrary.

More tests is a good thing, I'll add that in v2 along with the Reported-by.
