[PATCH 1/2] perf tools: Always uniquify event names

[James Clark <james.clark@linaro.org>]

evlist__uniquify_evsel_names() only gets called in __parse_events() if
verbose is > 0. This means that the auto added "slots" events stay as
"slots" rather than being expanded to "cpu_core/slots/" unless Perf is
run in verbose mode. This is invisible to users when running Perf stat
because evlist__print_counters() always calls it regardless of verbose
mode before displaying.

The only thing this seems to affect is the test "Parsing of all PMU
events from sysfs" which fails when not run in verbose mode.
test__checkevent_pmu_events() always expects event names to be prefixed
with the pmu name, but this only happens for "slots" events after
evlist__uniquify_evsel_names() is called.

One fix could be to relax the test to accept the non prefixed name in
normal mode. But seeing as Perf stat uniquifies unconditionally, make
parse_events() do the same.

This fixes the following test failure:

  $ perf test "Parsing of all PMU events from sysfs"
  5.2: Parsing of all PMU events from sysfs                    : FAILED!
