[PATCH] perf: Copy parent's address filter offsets on clone

[Alexander Shishkin]

When a child event is allocated in the inherit_event() path, the VMA
based filter offsets are not copied from the parent, even though the
address space mapping of the new task remains the same, which leads
to no trace for the new task until exec.
