Thanks. I ran into this problem too and was about to write 
a similar patch.

Except for LDM_PENDING the CYCLE_ACTIVITY events have been also added to Sandy 
Bridge.
So it should be also added there.

In fact I think you can still share the table because it would just add some 
non existent events to Sandy Bridge, which is a noop.
