perf fails to build with:

  CC 
/local/users/fainelli/buildroot/output/arm/build/linux-custom/tools/perf/util/metricgroup.o
util/metricgroup.c: In function 'metricgroup__parse_groups':

function)
  if (!table)

only once for each function it appears in

Error 1

caused by c1ef510a0f2a879bf29ddebae766ec9f0790eb8f ("perf metric: Return 
early if no CPU PMU table exists"). Dropping this commit allows the 
build to continue.

I had reported in the previous cycle that 00facc760903be66 ("perf 
jevents: Switch build to use jevents.py") was causing build failures:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/6a577578-8adb-aa70-1bf8-b1a4573152cf@xxxxxxxxx/

do we still want these commits to be included?
