[PATCH RFC v4 08/13] perf metricgroup: Fix uncore metric expressions

[John Garry <john.garry@huawei.com>]

From: Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>

A metric like DRAM_BW_Use has on SkylakeX events uncore_imc/cas_count_read/
and uncore_imc/case_count_write/. These events open 6 events per socket
with pmu names of uncore_imc_[0-5]. The current metric setup code in
find_evsel_group assumes one ID will map to 1 event to be recorded in
metric_events. For events with multiple matches, the first event is
recorded in metric_events (avoiding matching >1 event with the same
name) and the evlist_used updated so that duplicate events aren't
removed when the evlist has unused events removed.

Before this change:
$ /tmp/perf/perf stat -M DRAM_BW_Use -a -- sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

             41.14 MiB  uncore_imc/cas_count_read/
     1,002,614,251 ns   duration_time

       1.002614251 seconds time elapsed

After this change:
$ /tmp/perf/perf stat -M DRAM_BW_Use -a -- sleep 1

 Performance counter stats for 'system wide':

            157.47 MiB  uncore_imc/cas_count_read/ #     0.00 DRAM_BW_Use
            126.97 MiB  uncore_imc/cas_count_write/
     1,003,019,728 ns   duration_time

Erroneous duplication introduced in:
commit 2440689d62e9 ("perf metricgroup: Remove duped metric group events").

Fixes: ded80bda8bc9 ("perf expr: Migrate expr ids table to a hashmap").
