It swaps all fields in 'struct perf_event_attr' without checking whether the swapped field exist or not. In addition, in read_event_desc() allocs memory for attr according to size read from perf.data. Therefore, if the perf.data is collected by an old perf (without aux_watermark, for example), when perf_event__attr_swap() swaping attr->aux_watermark it destroy malloc's metadata. This patch introduces boundary checking in perf_event__attr_swap(). It adds macros bswap_field_64 and bswap_field_32 into perf_event__attr_swap() to make it only swap exist fields.
