The function perf_init_event() creates a new event and
assignes it to a PMU. This a done in a loop over all existing
PMUs. For each listed PMU the event init function is called
and if this function does return any other error than -ENOENT,
the loop is terminated the creation of the event fails.
If the event is invalid, return -ENOENT to try other PMUs.
