Ian Rogers b2f10cd4e8 perf cpumap: Fix alignment for masks in event encoding
A mask encoding of a cpu map is laid out as:

  u16 nr
  u16 long_size
  unsigned long mask[];

However, the mask may be 8-byte aligned meaning there is a 4-byte pad
after long_size. This means 32-bit and 64-bit builds see the mask as
being at different offsets. On top of this the structure is in the byte
data[] encoded as:

  u16 type
  char data[]

This means the mask's struct isn't the required 4 or 8 byte aligned, but
is offset by 2. Consequently the long reads and writes are causing
undefined behavior as the alignment is broken.

Fix the mask struct by creating explicit 32 and 64-bit variants, use a
union to avoid data[] and casts; the struct must be packed so the
layout matches the existing perf.data layout. Taking an address of a
member of a packed struct breaks alignment so pass the packed
perf_record_cpu_map_data to functions, so they can access variables with
the right alignment.

As the 64-bit version has 4 bytes of padding, optimizing writing to only
write the 32-bit version.

Committer notes:

Disable warnings about 'packed' that break the build in some arches like
riscv64, but just around that specific struct.
