Subject: [PATCH v3 8/9] perf, x86: enlarge PEBS buffer

Currently the PEBS buffer size is 4k, it only can hold about 21
PEBS records. This patch enlarges the PEBS buffer size to 64k
(the same as BTS buffer), 64k memory can hold about 330 PEBS
records. This will significantly the reduce number of PMI when
large PEBS interrupt threshold is used.
