I might want to go turn that into a helper function to keep !perf code
from poking around in the event itself, but its ok for now I suppose.

So the bpf_perf_event_read() returns the count value, does this not also
mean that returning -EINVAL here is also 'wrong'?

I mean, sure an actual count value that high is unlikely, but its still
