[patch] perf tool divide by zero error if f_header.attr_size==0
From: Vince Weaver

Hello
so I have been having lots of trouble with hand-crafted perf.data files
causing segfaults and the like, so I have started fuzzing the perf tool.
First issue found:
If f_header.attr_size is 0 in the perf.data file, then perf will crash
with a divide-by-zero error.
