perf tools: Fix a problem when opening old perf.data with different byte order
Following error occurs when trying to use 'perf report' on x86_64 to
cross analysis a perf.data generated by an old perf on a big-endian
machine:
# perf report

======= Memory map: ========
[SNIP]
The bug is in perf_event__attr_swap(). It swaps all fields in 'struct
perf_event_attr' without checking whether the swapped field exist or
not. In addition, in read_event_desc() allocs memory for attr according
to size read from perf.data.
Therefore, if the perf.data is collected by an old perf (without
aux_watermark, for example), when perf_event__attr_swap() swaping
attr->aux_watermark it destroy malloc's metadata.
This patch introduces boundary checking in perf_event__attr_swap(). It
adds macros bswap_field_64 and bswap_field_32 into
perf_event__attr_swap() to make it only swap exist fields.
