perf parse-events: Set default GH modifier properly
Commit
7b100989b4f6bce7 ("perf evlist: Remove __evlist__add_default")
changed to use "cycles:P" as a default event. But the problem is it
cannot set other default modifiers correctly.
perf kvm needs to set attr.exclude_host by default but it didn't work
because of the logic in the parse_events__modifier_list(). Also the
exclude_GH_default was applied only if ":u" modifier was specified -
which is strange. Move it out after handling the ":GH" and check
perf_host and perf_guest properly.
Before:
$ ./perf kvm record -vv true |& grep exclude
(nothing)
But specifying an event (without a modifier) works:
$ ./perf kvm record -vv -e cycles true |& grep exclude
exclude_host 1
After:
It now works for the both cases:
$ ./perf kvm record -vv true |& grep exclude
exclude_host 1
$ ./perf kvm record -vv -e cycles true |& grep exclude
exclude_host 1
