Subject: [PATCH 4.19 56/91] perf tools: Fix proper buffer size for feature processing

[ Upstream commit 79b2fe5e756163897175a8f57d66b26cd9befd59 ]

After Song Liu's segfault fix for pipe mode, Arnaldo reported following
error:

  # perf record -o - | perf script
  0x514 [0x1ac]: failed to process type: 80

It's caused by wrong buffer size setup in feature processing, which
makes cpu topology feature fail, because it's using buffer size to
recognize its header version.
