Subject: [PATCH v1 01/15] perf, tools, stat: Fix buffer overflow while freeing events

From: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

Fix buffer overflow for

% perf stat -e msr/tsc/,cstate_core/c7-residency/ true

that causes glibc free list corruption. For some reason
it doesn't trigger in valgrind, but it is visible in AS:

The event is allocated with cpus == 1, but freed with cpus == real number
When the evsel close function walks the file descriptors it exceeds the
fd xyarray boundaries and reads random memory.

Just make sure to always use the same dummy cpu map following
the same logic as the open call.
