fd does not need to be -1 in here.. in my setup cstate_pkg/c2-residency/
has cpumask 0, so other cpus never get open and are 0, and the whole thing
ends up with:

sys_perf_event_open: pid -1 cpu 1 group_fd 0 flags 0
sys_perf_event_open failed, error -9

I actualy thought we put -1 to fd array but couldn't find it.. perhaps we should od that

so how do we group following events?

cstate_pkg/c2-residency/ - cpumask 0
msr/tsc/ - all cpus

cpu 0 is fine.. the rest I have no idea ;-)

that's why metrics use the :W, that disables grouping on failure
