perf/core: Bail out early if the request AUX area is out of bound
When perf-record with a large AUX area, e.g 4GB, it fails with:
#perf record -C 0 -m ,4G -e arm_spe_0// -- sleep 1
failed to mmap with 12 (Cannot allocate memory)
and it reveals a WARNING with __alloc_pages():

'rb->aux_pages' allocated by kcalloc() is a pointer array which is used to
maintains AUX trace pages. The allocated page for this array is physically
contiguous (and virtually contiguous) with an order of 0..MAX_ORDER. If the
size of pointer array crosses the limitation set by MAX_ORDER, it reveals a
WARNING.
So bail out early with -ENOMEM if the request AUX area is out of bound,
e.g.:
#perf record -C 0 -m ,4G -e arm_spe_0// -- sleep 1
failed to mmap with 12 (Cannot allocate memory)
