perf buildid: Avoid copy of uninitialized memory
build_id__init() only copies the buildid data up to size leaving the rest of the data array uninitialized. Copying the full array during synthesis means the written event contains uninitialized memory. Ensure the size is less that the buffer size and only copy the bytes that were initialized. This was detected by the Clang/LLVM memory sanitizer. v2. Avoids the potential for copying too much as suggested by Arnaldo.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
