It's redundant with what the event description already says.
If we always want to show it we don't need to do anything.

I really would much prefer to hide it. What's the point of showing
something that people are not supposed to use?

The only reason for keeping the deprecated events is to not
break old scripts, but those don't care about perf list output.

So I think the only sane option is to hide it by default.
