Hmm, perf_aux_output_begin() returning NULL is not WARN-worthy and is
actually a normal situation, for example, if the buffer is not
configured yet (which like I suggested in the other email should be a
separate thing from the *event* configuration).
perf_aux_output_begin() will also return NULL if there's no room in the
buffer.
