I did not put them in there because there is another problem.
If you partition the generic counters 2 and 2, then some CPUs will not
be able to measure some events.
Unfortunately, there is no way to partition the 4 counters such that
all the events can be measured by
each CPU. Some events or precise sampling requires counter 2 for
instance (like prec_dist).
That's why I did not put this fix in.
