commit f250b09c779550e4a7a412dae6d3ad34d5201019 upstream.
The PERF_RECORD_USER_ events are synthesized by the tool to assist in processing the PERF_RECORD_ ones generated by the kernel, the printing of that information doesn't come with a perf_sample structure, so, when dumping the event fields using 'perf report -D' there were columns that end up not being printed.
To tidy up a bit this, fake a perf_sample structure with zeroes to have the missing columns printed and avoid the occasional surprise with that.
