Fixes: f01642e4912b ("perf metricgroup: Support multiple events for metricgroup")
Reviewed-by: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@linux.ibm.com>

But while looking at the patch, I found that, commit f01642e4912b
has (again) screwed up logic for metric with overlapping events.

$ sudo ./perf stat -M UPI,IPC sleep 1

Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':

948,650 uops_retired.retire_slots
866,182 inst_retired.any # 0.7 IPC
866,182 inst_retired.any
1,175,671 cpu_clk_unhalted.thread

This also needs to be fixed.

Ravi
