[PATCH 42/53] perf record: Prevent reading invalid data in record__mmap_read
From: Wang Nan
Date: Mon Jan 11 2016 - 08:51:12 EST
When record__mmap_read() require data more than the size of ring
buffer, drop those data to avoid access invalid memory.
This can happen when reading from overwritable ring buffer, which
should be avoided. However, check this for robustness.
