gah, this version breaks perf-list. Updated patch attached.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] perf list: Add usage - v2

Currently perf list is not very helpful if you forget the syntax:
  $ perf list -h

  List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):

After:
  $ perf list -h

   usage: perf list [hw|sw|cache|tracepoint|pmu|event_glob]

v2: reset index counter based on option parsing.
