I tested this patch with two commands:

# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py -d ./tests/attr/ \
        -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-record-spe-period
# PERF_TEST_ATTR=/tmp /usr/bin/python2 ./tests/attr.py -d ./tests/attr/ \
        -p ./perf -vvvvv -t test-record-spe-period-term

Both testing can pass on Hisilicon D06 board.

One question: I'm a bit concern this case will fail on some Arm64
platforms which doesn't contain Arm SPE modules.  E.g. below commands
will always fail on Arm64 platforms if SPE module is absent.  So I am
wandering if we can add extra checking ARM SPE event is existed or not?

  # ./perf test list
   17: Setup struct perf_event_attr
  # ./perf test 17

Thanks,
Leo
