Doesn't work for me:
./perf test -v 19
19: Test software clock events have valid period values :
--- start ---
mmap size 528384B
mmap size 528384B
All (0) samples have period value of 1!
---- end ----
Test software clock events have valid period values: FAILED!
Compensate the lower freq introduced in 67c1e4a53b17 with a longer loop,

We were using it at 10 kHz, which doesn't work in machines where somehow
the max freq was auto reduced by the kernel:
[root@ssdandy ~]# perf test 19
19: Test software clock events have valid period values : FAILED!
[root@ssdandy ~]# perf test -v 19
19: Test software clock events have valid period values :
--- start ---
Couldn't open evlist: Invalid argument
---- end ----
Test software clock events have valid period values: FAILED!
[root@ssdandy ~]#
[root@ssdandy ~]# cat /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate
7000
Reducing it to 500 Hz should be good enough for this test and also
shouldn't affect what it is testing.
But warn the user if it fails, informing the knob and the freq tried.

We were not checking if we successfully opened the counters, i.e. if
sys_perf_event_open worked, when it doesn't in this test, we were
continuing anyway and then segfaulting when trying to access the file
descriptor array, that at that point had been freed in perf_evlist__open
error path:
[root@ssdandy ~]# perf test -v 19
19: Test software clock events have valid period values :
--- start ---
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[root@ssdandy ~]#
Do the check and bail out instead.

Most uses of the evsel constructor are followed by a call to
perf_evlist__add with an idex of evlist->nr_entries, so make rename
the current constructor to perf_evsel__new_idx and remove the need
for passing the constructor for the common case.
We still need the new_idx variant because the way groups are handled,
with evsel->nr_members holding the number of entries in an evlist,
partitioning the evlist into sublists inside a single linked list.
This asks for a clarifying refactoring, but for now simplify the non
parser cases, so that tool writers don't have to bother with evsel idx
setting.

The tail position of the event buffer should only be modified after
actually use that event.
If not the event buffer could be invalid before use, and segment fault
occurs when invoking perf top -G.

clock events (cpu-clock, task-clock) have valid (non-1) periods.
