Not just the debug output. It also impacts the perf list --detail.

With the patch,
perf list --detail | grep uops_retired.heavy -A 2
  uops_retired.heavy
       [Retired uops except the last uop of each instruction. Unit:
cpu_core]
        cpu_core/event=0xc2,period=0x1e8483,umask/

Without the patch,
perf list --detail | grep uops_retired.heavy -A 2
  uops_retired.heavy
       [Retired uops except the last uop of each instruction. Unit:
cpu_core]
        cpu_core/event=0xc2,period=0x1e8483,umask=0x1/

Thanks,
