Thanks for the comments!

I'm now preparing v2. In v2 version, I will provide a new function 'perf_pmu__pattern_match which
wraps the matching and checking. Something like:

while ((pmu = perf_pmu__scan(pmu)) != NULL) {
if (!perf_pmu__pattern_match(pmu, pattern, $1)) {
...
}
}

I will post v2 soon.

Thanks
Jin Yao
