[PATCH v1] perf stat: Remove evlist__add_default_attrs use strings

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Sat Apr 06 2024 - 03:38:19 EST

add_default_atttributes would add evsels by having pre-created
perf_event_attr, however, this needed fixing for hybrid as the
extended PMU type was necessary for each core PMU. The logic for this
was in an arch specific x86 function and wasn't present for ARM,
meaning that default events weren't being opened on all PMUs on
ARM. Change the creation of the default events to use parse_events and
strings as that will open the events on all PMUs.

Rather than try to detect events on PMUs before parsing, parse the
event but skip its output in stat-display.

Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAP-5=fVABSBZnsmtRn1uF-k-G1GWM-L5SgiinhPTfHbQsKXb_g@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
