I just moved to evsel__set_config_if_unset() to util/pmu.c, next to
some other evsel__ functions to not break the python.so binding, before
I was getting:

[acme@quaco perf-tools-next]$ perf test -v python
Couldn't bump rlimit(MEMLOCK), failures may take place when creating BPF maps, etc
19: 'import perf' in python :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 500086
python usage test: "echo "import sys ; sys.path.append('/tmp/build/perf-tools-next/python'); import perf" | '/usr/bin/python3' "
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: /tmp/build/perf-tools-next/python/perf.cpython-311-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: perf_pmu__format_bits

---- end ----
'import perf' in python: FAILED!

Please run 'perf test' and 'make -C tools/perf build-test' prior to
sending pull requests,

Thanks, applied.
