Jin Yao reported parser error for software event:
# perf stat -e software/r1a/ -a -- sleep 1
event syntax error: 'software/r1a/'
\___ parser error
This happens after commit
8c3b1ba0e7ea9a80 ("drm/i915/gt: Track the
overall awake/busy time"), where new software-gt-awake-time event's
non-pmu-event-style makes event parser conflict with software PMU.
If we allow PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE to be parsed as PMU name, we fix the
conflict and the following character '/' for PMU or '-' for
non-pmu-event-style event allows parser to decide what even is
specified.
Fixes:
