Applied, were those found with some tool? Or just by visual inspection?

Also I noticed that evsel->metric_events is correctly initialized to
NULL in evsel__init(), but evsel->per_pkg_mask isn't, and while
evsel__new() uses zalloc() it is possible, IIRC, for evsels associated
with hists to be part of a larger struct, so I think the safest way is
to initialize evsel->per_pkg_mask to NULL in evsel__init(), will do it
in a follow up patch.
