[PATCH 2/3] perf, tools: Default to cpu// for events

[Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org>]

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

When an event fails to parse and it's not in a new style format,
try to parse it again as a cpu event.

This allows to use sysfs exported events directly without //, so I can use

perf record -e tx-aborts ...

instead of

perf record -e cpu/tx-aborts/
