What is annoying ? you need to be specific.

The events listed under the following heading are events required to do
CPI analysis.

But I am not sure the events the current patch in context adds

+EVENT(PM_1THRD_CON_RUN_INSTR,                 0x30062)
+EVENT(PM_CMPLU_STALL_COUNT,                   0x4000B)
+EVENT(PM_MEM0_PB_RD_CL,                       0x30083)
+EVENT(PM_THRD_1_RUN_CYC,                      0x10060)
+EVENT(PM_THRD_2_CONC_RUN_INSTR,               0x40062)
+EVENT(PM_THRD_2_RUN_CYC,                      0x20060)
+EVENT(PM_THRD_3_CONC_RUN_INST,                0x10062)
+EVENT(PM_THRD_3_RUN_CYC,                      0x30060)
+EVENT(PM_THRD_4_CONC_RUN_INST,                0x20062)
+EVENT(PM_THRD_4_RUN_CYC,                      0x40060)

will be helpful in CPI stack analysis and should be part of the ABI
documentation file. If it does, I will be glad to add them.
