Ian Rogers d7ba60a4e5 perf header: Avoid out-of-bounds read
intel-pt tests were failing:

  -- Test virtual LBR ---
  Linux
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.126 MB /tmp/perf-test-intel-pt-sh.FW57CXnCqQ/test-perf.data ]
  Failed with virtual lbr
  ...
  ```

  The root cause is an out-of-bounds read in header (where maxbrstack.py
  is from test_intel_pt.sh):
  ```
  $ perf --no-pager script --itrace=L -s maxbrstack.py

Avoid the out-of-bounds read checking for the leader. Leave the 'nr'
check intact as nr will be 0 or the counting down and evsel be a group
member.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
