perf test: Add roundtrip test for hardware cache events

That nicely catches the problem reported by Joel Uckelman in
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.perf.user/1016 :

[root@sandy ~]# perf test
1: vmlinux symtab matches kallsyms: Ok
2: detect open syscall event: Ok
3: detect open syscall event on all cpus: Ok
4: read samples using the mmap interface: Ok
5: parse events tests: Ok
6: x86 rdpmc test: Ok
7: Validate PERF_RECORD_* events & perf_sample fields: Ok
8: Test perf pmu format parsing: Ok
9: Test dso data interface: Ok
10: roundtrip evsel->name check: FAILED!

[root@sandy ~]# perf test -v 10
10: roundtrip evsel->name check:

Now lemme apply Jiri's fix and try it again...
