Subject: [RFC PATCH v5 09/16] perf stat: Add function to handle special events in hardware-grouping

From: Weilin Wang <weilin.wang@...el.com>

There are some special events like topdown events and TSC that are not
described in pmu-event JSON files. Add support to handle this type of
events. This should be considered as a temporary solution because including
these events in JSON files would be a better solution.
