So, here is your patch:

What happens if (size < sizeof(struct perf_event_header)) is true? size
will have an undefined value, so the right thing is to have this patch
on top of yours, so that err get, as before, set to -EINVAL when the
size is less than the perf_event_header sizeof:

With two Reviewed-by tags, I jumped to quickly at applying, please
compile test next time guys ;-) :-)
