Whitespace problem?

Btw, as a generic wrapper shouldn't it handle common fields also?  If
you care about performance, how about switching the order of finding
fields in question, i.e.:

	struct format_field *field = pevent_find_field(evsel->tp_format, name);

	if (!field) {
		field = pevent_find_common_field(evsel->tp_format, name);
		if (!field)
			return NULL;
	}

Ditto.
