[ Upstream commit f250b09c779550e4a7a412dae6d3ad34d5201019 ]

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
