Subject: [PATCH 1/4] tools/perf: support parsing parameterized events

Enable event specification like:

	pmu/event_name,param1=0x1,param2=0x4/

Assuming that

	/sys/bus/event_source/devices/pmu/events/event_name

Contains something like

	param2=?,bar=1,param1=?

Changelog[v6]:
	[Jiri Olsa] Add a check to make sure that sysfs entries with
	parameters exactly match '=?'.

Changelog[v4]:
	[Jiri Olsa] Merge to recent perf-core and fix a small conflict.

Changelog[v3]:
	[Jiri Olsa] If the sysfs event file specifies 'param=val', make the
	usage 'hv_24x7/event,param=123/' rather than 'hv_24x7/event,val=123/'.
