Turn a perf json event into an event, metric or both. This reduces the number of events needed to scan to find an event or metric. As events no longer need the relatively seldom used metric fields, 4 bytes is saved per event. This reduces the big C string's size by 335kb (14.8%) on x86. Note, for the test PMU architecture pme_test_soc_cpu is renamed pmu_events__test_soc_cpu for consistency with the event vs metric naming convention.

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.
