Don't abuse si_errno and deliver all of the perf data in si_perf.

Thank you for the fix, this looks cleaner.

Just note that this patch needs to include updates to
tools/testing/selftests/perf_events. This should do it:
quoted
 sed -i 's/si_perf/si_perf.data/g; s/si_errno/si_perf.type/g' tools/testing/selftests/perf_events/*.c
Subject: s/perf_data/perf data/ ?

For uapi, need to switch to __u32, see below.
Good point.

The one thing that this doesn't do is give you a 64bit field
on 32bit architectures.

On 32bit builds the layout is:

	int si_signo;
	int si_errno;
	int si_code;
	void __user *_addr;
        
So I believe if the first 3 fields were moved into the _sifields union
si_perf could define a 64bit field as it's first member and it would not
break anything else.

Given that the data field is 64bit that seems desirable.
