What I did currently was to assign some cache events to 0xb7 and
others to bb on Westmere. That's a bit arbitrary, but allows to 
measure some common combinations together at least.

In theory one could teach the scheduler that these events
are equivalent, but that seems like too much complexity for 
me currently.
