- BPF program info linear (BPIL) data is accessed assuming 64-bit alignment
resulting in undefined behavior as the data is just byte aligned. Fix it,
Found using -fsanitize=undefined.
- Fix 'perf offcpu' build on old kernels wrt task_struct's state/__state field.
- Fix perf_event_attr.sample_type setting on the 'offcpu-time' event synthesized
by the 'perf offcpu' tool.
- Don't bail out when synthesizing PERF_RECORD_ events for pre-existing threads
when one goes away while parsing its procfs entries.
- Don't sort the task scan result from /proc, its not needed and introduces bugs
when the main thread isn't the first one to be processed.
- Fix uninitialized 'offset' variable on aarch64 in the unwind code.
- Sync KVM headers with the kernel sources.
