Jin Yao reported parser error for software event:
# perf stat -e software/r1a/ -a -- sleep 1
event syntax error: 'software/r1a/'
\___ parser error
This happens after commit 8c3b1ba0e7ea, where new
software-gt-awake-time event's non-pmu-event-style
makes event parser conflict with software pmu.
If we allow PE_PMU_EVENT_PRE to be parsed as pmu name,
we fix the conflict and the following character '/' for
pmu or '-' for non-pmu-event-style event allows parser
to decide what even is specified.
