SIGSEGV on perf's 'Basic parsing test'

[Guilherme Amadio <amadio@gentoo.org>]

Dear Arnaldo, Namhyung, Ian,

I noticed that on perf-tools-next, some new tests fail on my machine
with a segmentation fault. I am on perf-tools-next at the following
commit: 85c60a01b85ee956adf8d46c253fc50f75363e8f.

After compiling perf with DEBUG=1 and running the test on gdb, this is
the stack trace that I get from the crash:

Reading symbols from ./perf...
(gdb) run

                     \___ Bad event name

Please let me know what other information you'd like to have from my system.
The CPU is an AMD 3950X and the motherboard is an ASUS Pro WS X570-ACE if that
helps.
