[PATCH 5/7] perf top: Fix SIGBUS on sparc64

[Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo]

From: David Ahern <david.ahern@xxxxxxxxxx>

perf-top is terminating due to SIGBUS on sparc64. git bisect points to:

    commit 82396986032915c1572bfb74b224fcc2e4e8ba7c

        perf evlist: Refcount mmaps

        We need to know how many fds are using a perf mmap via
        PERF_EVENT_IOC_SET_OUTPUT, so that we can know when to ditch an mmap,
        refcount it.

This commit added 'int refcnt' to struct perf_mmap and the addition makes the
event_copy element no longer 8-byte aligned.

Fix by adding __attribute__((aligned(8))) to the event_copy struct
member.

[ Switched from 'int pad;' to using __attribute__, David tested/acked that ]
