Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 21d7eb9a24 perf augmented_syscalls: Check probe_read_str() return separately
Using a value returned from probe_read_str() to tell how many bytes to
copy using perf_event_output() has issues in some older kernels, like
4.17.17-100.fc27.x86_64, so separate the bounds checking done on how
many bytes to copy to a separate variable, so that the next patch has
only what is being done to make the test pass on older BPF validators.

For reference, see the discussion in this thread:

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
