Subject: [PATCH 46/58] arm64: perf: fix array out of bounds access in armpmu_map_hw_event()

3.8.13.8 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@....com>

commit 868f6fea8fa63f09acbfa93256d0d2abdcabff79 upstream.

This is a port of d9f966357b14 ("ARM: 7810/1: perf: Fix array out of
bounds access in armpmu_map_hw_event()") to arm64, which fixes an oops
in the arm64 perf backend found as a result of Vince's fuzzing tool.
