perf tools: Add basic event modifier sanity check
Updating event parser to allow any non zero string containing [ukhpGH] characters for event modifier. The modifier sanity is checked later in parse-event object logic. The check validates modifier to contain only one instance of any modifier (apart from 'p') present. v2: - added length check suggested Namhyung Kim Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Acked-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Corey Ashford <cjashfor@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121113143258.GA2481@krava.brq.redhat.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
