This is another attempt to resurrect Andi Kleen's patchset so users can specify perf events by their event names rather than raw codes.
This is a rebase of Andi Kleen's patchset from Jul 30, 2014[1] to 4.0. (I fixed minor and not so minor conflicts). This patchset includes the perf-download tool that was dropped and sets the default download location to the (tools/perf/pmu-events/arch/... directory in Linus's tree. A follow-on patchset will include the actual JSON files for Powerpc, which are currently available on github[2].
