perf test: Add roundtrip test for hardware cache events
That nicely catches the problem reported by Joel Uckelman in http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.perf.user/1016 : [root@sandy ~]# perf test 1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Ok 2: detect open syscall event: Ok 3: detect open syscall event on all cpus: Ok 4: read samples using the mmap interface: Ok 5: parse events tests: Ok 6: x86 rdpmc test: Ok 7: Validate PERF_RECORD_* events & perf_sample fields: Ok 8: Test perf pmu format parsing: Ok 9: Test dso data interface: Ok 10: roundtrip evsel->name check: FAILED!

[root@sandy ~]# Now lemme apply Jiri's fix and try it again...
