hm, I don't see that.. so, what you do is:

	hashmap__for_each_entry_safe((&pctx->ids) ....) {

		rc = expr__find_other(pe->metric_expr, NULL, pctx, 0);
	}

and what I think we need to do is:

	hashmap__for_each_entry_safe((&pctx->ids) ....) {

		rc = expr__find_other(pe->metric_expr, NULL, pctx, 0);

		break;	
	}

each time you resolve another metric, you need to restart
the pctx->ids iteration, because there will be new items,
and we are in the middle of it
