[ Upstream commit 382c27f4ed28f803b1f1473ac2d8db0afc795a1b ]
Budimir noted that perf_event_validate_size() only checks the size of
the newly added event, even though the sizes of all existing events
can also change due to not all events having the same read_format.
When we attach the new event, perf_group_attach(), we do re-compute
the size for all events.

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.
