Subject: [PATCH] bpf: fix misaligned access for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT
 program type on x86_32 platform

All the testcases for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT program type in
test_verifier(kselftest) report below errors on x86_32:
"

This patch fix it, the fix isn't only necessary for x86_32, it will fix the
same problem for other platforms too, if their size of bpf_user_pt_regs_t
can't divide exactly into 8.

 Hi all!
 After mainline accept this patch, then we need to submit a sync patch
 to update the tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf_perf_event.h.

 Thanks.
