Good catch thanks Yonghong, sending rev2.

Syzkaller reported a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds write in __bpf_get_stackid()
when copying stack trace data. The issue occurs when the perf trace
  contains more stack entries than the stack map bucket can hold,
  leading to an out-of-bounds write in the bucket's data array.
For build_id mode, we use sizeof(struct bpf_stack_build_id)
  to determine capacity, and for normal mode we use sizeof(u64).
