commit c29d9792607e67ed8a3f6e9db0d96836d885a8c5 upstream.
The space allowed for new attributes can be too small if existing header information is large. That can happen, for example, if there are very many CPUs, due to having an event ID per CPU per event being stored in the header information.
Fix by adding the existing header.data_offset. Also increase the extra space allowed to 8KiB and align to a 4KiB boundary for neatness.
