[PATCH] perf tools: fix buffer allocation

[Eric Dumazet]

Hi Ingo

Here is a patch for perf.

BTW, use of openat() is a nuisance, since many machines have old glibc
(RHEL 4 Update 5 -> glibc-2.3.4-2.36 on my dev machine for example)

Thanks


[PATCH] perf tools: fix buffer allocation

"perf top" cores dump on my dev machine, if run from a directory where
vmlinux is present.

*** glibc detected *** malloc(): memory corruption: 0x085670d0 ***
