In order to parse a sample correctly based on the information
        requested via sample_type, the kernel needs to save each component
        in a known order. There is no type value saved with each component.
        The current convention is that each component is saved according to
        the order in enum perf_event_sample_format. But perf_output_sample()
        was not completely following this convention, thereby making samples
        impossible to parse without internal kernel knowledge.

        This patch puts things in the right order.
