Namhyung Kim 69a4718cb2 perf stat: Fix out of bounds CPU map access when handling armv8_pmu events
[ Upstream commit bef69bd7cf ]

It was reported that 'perf stat' crashed when using with armv8_pmu (CPU)
events with the task mode.  As 'perf stat' uses an empty cpu map for
task mode but armv8_pmu has its own cpu mask, it has confused which map
it should use when accessing file descriptors and this causes segfaults:

  (gdb) bt
  #0  0x0000000000603fc8 in perf_evsel__close_fd_cpu (evsel=<optimized out>,
      cpu=<optimized out>) at evsel.c:122

      argc=1) at builtin-stat.c:947

  #6  0x00000000004bb888 in run_builtin (p=p@entry=0x9764b8 <commands+288>,

  #7  0x00000000004bbb54 in handle_internal_command (argc=argc@entry=4,
      argv=argv@entry=0xfffffaea2f90) at perf.c:364

      argv=<synthetic pointer>) at perf.c:408
  #9  main (argc=4, argv=0xfffffaea2f90) at perf.c:538

To fix this, I simply used the given cpu map unless the evsel actually
is not a system-wide event (like uncore events).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
