swap_sample_id_all() calls BUG_ON(size % sizeof(u64)) which kills
perf on any event where the sample_id_all tail is not 8-byte aligned.
A crafted perf.data can trigger this trivially.
Replace BUG_ON with a bounds check: skip the swap if the data pointer
is past the end of the event, and only swap when there are bytes
remaining.
Note: the strlen calls in string-field swap handlers (comm,
mmap, mmap2, cgroup) are replaced with bounded strnlen by the
next patch in this series ("perf session: Add validated swap
infrastructure with null-termination checks").
