Thanks a lot Ian for your detailed review!

The evsel->pmu was added recently for checking missing features.
And I just made it to have the pmu info when parsing events.

I guess it has pmu_name because it didn't want to add pmu.c dependency
to the python module. But this change only adds pmu.h dependency.

I believe so.
