Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo f250b09c77 perf report: Fix -D output for user metadata events
The PERF_RECORD_USER_ events are synthesized by the tool to assist in
processing the PERF_RECORD_ ones generated by the kernel, the printing
of that information doesn't come with a perf_sample structure, so, when
dumping the event fields using 'perf report -D' there were columns that
end up not being printed.

To tidy up a bit this, fake a perf_sample structure with zeroes to have
the missing columns printed and avoid the occasional surprise with that.

Before:

0 0x45b8 [0x68]: PERF_RECORD_MMAP -1/0: [0xffffffffc12ec000(0x4000) @ 0]: x /lib/modules/4.14.0+/kernel/fs/nls/nls_utf8.ko

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
