libfuzzer found the following command could SEGV:
$ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true
This is because the L2 term rewrites the perf_event_attr type to
PERF_TYPE_HW_CACHE which then fails the PMU lookup for the second
legacy cache term.
The new failure is consistent with repeated hardware terms:
$ perf stat -e cpu/L2,L2/ true
event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/'
\___ Failed to find PMU for type 3
Initial error:
event syntax error: 'cpu/L2,L2/'
\___ Failed to find PMU for type 3
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
Usage: perf stat [<options>] [<command>]
-e, --event <event> event selector. use 'perf list' to list available events
$ perf stat -e cpu/cycles,cycles/ true
event syntax error: 'cpu/cycles,cycles/'
\___ Failed to find PMU for type 0
Initial error:

Committer testing:
Before:

After:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
