Subject: perf user tool precise attribute broken in 3.5rc1+

With a perf user tool compiled from a 3.5rc1+ kernel I cannot
use the 'p' attribute anymore. Always get

ak@petrock:~> ./perf record -e cycles:p ./t

  Error: sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 22 (Invalid argument).  /bin/dmesg may provide additional information.

  Fatal: No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?

./t: Terminated

With an older perf it works, so the kernel is ok.

ak@petrock:~> ./perf record -e cycles:p ./t
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.005 MB perf.data (~217 samples) ]
