so, how about the event alias has more than 2 parts a-b-c ?

if I remove 'stalled-cycles-frontend' from lexer (patch attached),
I'll get error parsing it with this code:

---
[jolsa@krava perf]$ ls -l /sys/devices/cpu/events/stalled-cycles-frontend 
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Sep  6 21:17 
/sys/devices/cpu/events/stalled-cycles-frontend
[jolsa@krava perf]$ ./perf record -e stalled-cycles-frontend ls
invalid or unsupported event: 'stalled-cycles-frontend'
Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events

 usage: perf record [<options>] [<command>]
    or: perf record [<options>] -- <command> [<options>]

    -e, --event <event>   event selector. use 'perf list' to list available 
events
---

and.. if we will actually handle this correctly, I think maybe we want
to remove all the PERF_TYPE_HARDWARE equivalents? 

thanks,
jirka
