Joakim reports that getting "perf stat" for multiple system PMU metrics
segfaults:
$ perf stat -a -I 1000 -M imx8mm_ddr_write.all,imx8mm_ddr_write.all
Segmentation fault
$
While the same works without issue for a single metric.
The logic in metricgroup__add_metric_sys_event_iter() is broken, in that
add_metric() @m argument should be NULL for each new metric. Fix by not
passing a holder for that, and rather make local in
metricgroup__add_metric_sys_event_iter().
Fixes: be335ec28efa ("perf metricgroup: Support adding metrics for system PMUs")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
