The build-id events written at the end of the record session are broken
due to unexpected data. The write_buildid() writes the fixed length
event first and then variable length filename.
But a recent change made it write more data in the padding area
accidentally. So readers of the event see zero-filled data for the
next entry and treat it incorrectly. This resulted in wrong kernel
symbols because the kernel DSO loaded a random vmlinux image in the
path as it didn't have a valid build-id.
