If you say, PHYS_ADDR appears after SAMPLE_REGS_INTR then you have do respect
that order in the perf_output_sample() routine, otherwise the tool cannot parse
the record correctly.

Need to order the put calls according to the order you define in the
header file,
unless this logic has changed recently.
