This is just sitting in my tmp branch, and in my local perf/core branch,
so that I can test it with the containers, etc.
Is this related to the following fix?

perf trace: Fix segmentation fault when access syscall info on arm64
'perf trace' reports the segmentation fault as below on Arm64:
# perf trace -e string -e augmented_raw_syscalls.c
LLVM: dumping tools/perf/examples/bpf/augmented_raw_syscalls.o
perf: Segmentation fault
Obtained 12 stack frames.

Segmentation fault
This issue is introduced by commit 30a910d7d3e0 ("perf trace:
Preallocate the syscall table"), it allocates trace->syscalls.table[]
array and the element count is 'trace->sctbl->syscalls.nr_entries'; but
on Arm64, the system call number is not continuously used; e.g. the
syscall maximum id is 436 but the real entries is only 281.
