Subject: [PATCH 2/8] perf header: Assign proper ff->ph in perf_event__synthesize_features()

From: Song Liu <songliubraving@...com>

bpf/btf write_* functions need ff->ph->env.

With this missing, pipe-mode (perf record -o -)  would crash like:

Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

This patch assign proper ph value to ff.

Committer testing:

  (gdb) run record -o -
  Starting program: /root/bin/perf record -o -
  PERFILE2
  <SNIP start of perf.data headers>
  Thread 1 "perf" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

After the patch the SEGSEGV is gone.
