The previous code was:
- if (strcmp(str, "list")) {
This is handled explicitly in the code above this.

- if (!perf_mem_events__parse(str)) {
- mem->operation = 0;
- return 0;
- }
- exit(-1);
This is the code where the exit -1 happens, I inverted the comparison
so that exit was more the exceptional code path. The behavior should
be identical.
