I actually maintain this file upstream. I am concerned about the error you are seeing, -95. Is it possible you can provide me a 'dmesg' log of your boot up. I want to see what chipset the perf subsystem thinks it found. I may want to handle this error a little bit differently than the patch you provided below.
