Metrics containing duration_time cause a segfault:

  $ perf stat -v -M L1D_Cache_Fill_BW sleep 1
  Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-3D-4
  metric expr 64 * l1d.replacement / 1000000000 / duration_time for L1D_Cache_Fill_BW
  found event duration_time
  found event l1d.replacement
  adding {l1d.replacement}:W,duration_time
  l1d.replacement -> cpu/umask=0x1,(null)=0x1e8483,event=0x51/
  Segmentation fault
  $

In commit c2337d67199a1ea1 ("perf metricgroup: Fix metrics using aliases
covering multiple PMUs"), the logic in find_evsel_group() when iter'ing
events was changed to not only select events in same group, but also for
aliased PMUs.

Checking whether events were for aliased PMUs was done by comparing the
event PMU name. This was not safe for duration_time event, which has no
associated PMU (and no PMU name), so fix by checking if the event PMU name
is set also.

Committer testing:

Reproduced the bug, then, on a:

  $ grep -m1 ^'model name' /proc/cpuinfo
  model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8650U CPU @ 1.90GHz
  $

We now get:

  $ perf stat -M L1D_Cache_Fill_BW sleep 1

   Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':

               4,141      l1d.replacement:u
       1,001,285,107 ns   duration_time:u

         1.001285107 seconds time elapsed

         0.000000000 seconds user
         0.001119000 seconds sys
