[PATCH v3] perf jevents: Don't append Unit to desc

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Thu Aug 24 2023 - 14:33:08 EST


Unit with the PMU name is appended to desc in jevents.py, but on
hybrid platforms it causes the desc to differ from the regular
non-hybrid system with a PMU of 'cpu'. Having differing descs means
the events don't deduplicate. To make the perf list output not differ,
append the Unit on again in the perf list printing code.

On x86 reduces the binary size by 409,600 bytes or about 4%. Update
pmu-events test expectations to match the differently generated
pmu-events.c code.
