Subject[PATCH 03/13] perf ordered_events: Add 'struct ordered_events_buffer' layer
Date
From: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>

When ordering events, we use preallocated buffers to store separate
events. Those buffers currently don't have their own struct, but since
they are basically an array of 'struct ordered_event' objects, we use
the first event to hold buffers data - list head, that holds all buffers
together:

struct ordered_events {
...
struct ordered_event *buffer;
...
};

struct ordered_event {
u64 timestamp;
u64 file_offset;
union perf_event *event;
struct list_head list;
};

This is quite convoluted and error prone as demonstrated by free-ing
issue discovered and fixed by Stephane in here [1].

This patch adds the 'struct ordered_events_buffer' object, that holds
the buffer data and frees it up properly.
