this is 'splice' function, you can't configure precise in here

do you need this 'config thing' to be executed on arm only?

if yes, please add something like arch_evsel__config, make it
weak for generic code and define it for arm

if no, just add the call at the end perf_evsel__config I guess

thanks,
