hm, but commit ae4f8ae16a07 does not have similar cpu loop

I don't see how, if I'd see -1 together with other cpu values in
perf_cpu_map I'd think it's a bug, but I might be missing some
auxtrace usage,

I thought we use -1 just for empty cpu map, so in per-thread case
-1 is properly passed to perf_event_open syscall
