[PATCH 2/2] perf tools: Fix ommitted mmap data update on remap

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Mon May 23 2011 - 07:06:53 EST


Commit eac9eacee16
"perf tools: Check we are able to read the event size on mmap"
brought a check to ensure we can read the size of the event
before dereferencing it, and do a remap otherwise to move
the buffer forward.

However that remap was ommitting all the necessary work to update
the new page offset, head, and to unmap previous pages, etc...

To fix this, gather all the code that fetches the event in a
seperate helper which does all the necessary checks about the
header/event size and tells us anytime a remap is needed.
