[PATCH v1 4/4] perf inject: Lazily allocate guest_event event_buf

[Ian Rogers <irogers@google.com>]

The event_buf is 64kb (PERF_SAMPLE_SIZE_MAX) and stack allocated in
struct perf_inject. It is used for guest events that may not exist in
a file. Make the array allocation lazy to cut down on the stack usage.
