[PATCH 05/11] perf tool: Fix event ID retrieval for group format read case

From: Jiri Olsa
Date: Sat Oct 20 2012 - 10:33:59 EST


We need to fail the event ID retrieval in case both following
conditions are true:
- we are on kernel with no PERF_EVENT_IOC_ID support
- PERF_FORMAT_GROUP read format is set
