It seems that any metric which includes "duration_time" is broken, even on x86:

Seems to be from my commit c2337d67199 ("perf metricgroup: Fix metrics using aliases covering multiple PMUs")
I'll look to fix it now.

For a metric using duration_time, the strcmp() check when finding identical events in metric_events[] is broken, as it does not consider that the event pmu_name is NULL - it would be for duration_time.
As such, add a NULL check here for event pmu_name.

Hi John, Jolsa,
Is there any way to avoid breaking exist metric expressions? If not, it will always happened after metricgroup changes.
I recall that Jolsa mentioned it before, but I don’t remember it very clearly.
Thanks a lot for John's bug fix.
Best Regards, Joakim Zhang
