Well.. actually this is not a fix.  I've realized it adds some
sample types when it creates a new evsel regardless of
the perf_event_attr.

This was not a problem so far (as nobody touched it),
but when I changed some sample types during record
for this change, perf report sees a different value and
rejects the data.

Thanks,
