We would like to avoid adding more custom events like these. They were very 
convenient
but they steal the kernel event type space. They are deemed for removal in the 
long term.

Another idea to achieve what you want would be to create a new perf event 
header feature,
like HEADER_TRACE_INFO or HEADER_BUILD_ID are. Then use that to create a space 
in the perf
file to save that couple of clocks initial values.
