From: Jiri Olsa <jo...@redhat.com> Changing the way we retrieve the event ID. Instead of parsing out the ID out of the read data, using the PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl.
Keeping the old way in place to support kernels without PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID ioctl support. This will be useful for retrieving the event ID for events with PERF_FORMAT_GROUP read format set, where it's impossible to get correct event id out of the read call data.
