yep, we need to hook it in.. I recall we discussed this already ;-)
so would something like this be ok:

  $ perf stat -e kmem:mm_page_alloc -a sleep 1
  event syntax error: 'kmem:mm_page_alloc'
                       \___ No permissions to read
  /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/raw_syscalls/sys_(enter|exit)
  Hint:       Try 'sudo mount -o remount,mode=755 /sys/kernel/debug'
  Run 'perf list' for a list of valid events
