commit 20c457b8587bee4644d998331d9e13be82e05b4c upstream.

[This patch is part of mainline git commit 20c457b8587bee4644d9.
  This should fix:
  http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-perf-users@vger.kernel.org/msg00057.html

  The regression was introduced by git commit:
  4c21adf26f8fcf86a755b9b9f55c2e9fd241e1fb]

builtin-timechart must only pass -e power:xy events if they are supported by
the running kernel, otherwise try to fetch the old power:power{start,end}
events.

For this I added the tiny helper function:

   int is_valid_tracepoint(const char *event_string)

to parse-events.[hc], which could be more generic as an interface and support
hardware/software/... events, not only tracepoints, but someone else could
extend that if needed...
