Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 5b3cde1988 Revert "perf record: Reduce memory for recording PERF_RECORD_LOST_SAMPLES event"
This reverts commit 7d1405c71d.

This causes segfaults in some cases, as reported by Milian:

  ```
  sudo /usr/bin/perf record -z --call-graph dwarf -e cycles -e
  raw_syscalls:sys_enter ls
  ...
  [ perf record: Woken up 3 times to write data ]
  malloc(): invalid next size (unsorted)
  Aborted
  ```

  Backtrace with GDB + debuginfod:

  ```
  malloc(): invalid next size (unsorted)

  Thread 1 "perf" received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.
