[PATCH v1 0/2] Fix incorrect counts when count the same uncore event multiple times

[Chun-Tse Shao]

Let's take a look an example, the machine is SKX with 6 IMC devices.

  perf stat -e clockticks,clockticks -I 1000
  #           time             counts unit events
       1.001127430      6,901,503,174      uncore_imc_0/clockticks/
       1.001127430      3,940,896,301      uncore_imc_0/clockticks/
       2.002649722        988,376,876      uncore_imc_0/clockticks/
       2.002649722        988,376,141      uncore_imc_0/clockticks/
       3.004071319      1,000,292,675      uncore_imc_0/clockticks/
       3.004071319      1,000,294,160      uncore_imc_0/clockticks/

1) The events name should not be uniquified.
2) The initial count for the first `clockticks` is doubled.
3) Subsequent count only report for the first IMC device.

The first patch fixes 1) and 3), and the second patch fixes 2).

After these fix:

  perf stat -e clockticks,clockticks -I 1000
  #           time             counts unit events
       1.001127586      4,126,938,857      clockticks
       1.001127586      4,121,564,277      clockticks
       2.001686014      3,953,806,350      clockticks
       2.001686014      3,953,809,541      clockticks
       3.003121403      4,137,750,252      clockticks
       3.003121403      4,137,749,048      clockticks

I also tested `-A`, `--per-socket`, `--per-die` and `--per-core`, all
looks good.
