Subject: [PATCH 1/3] perf dwarf: Fix potential array out of bounds access

From: Wang Nan <wangnan0@...wei.com>

There is a problem in the dwarf-regs.c files for sh, sparc and x86 where
it is possible to make an out-of-bounds array access when searching for
register names.

This patch fixes it by replacing '<=' to '<', so when register (number
== XXX_MAX_REGS), get_arch_regstr() will return NULL.
