perf session: Avoid infinite loop when seeing invalid header.size
Vince reported that when fuzzing the userland perf tool with a bogus perf.data file he got into a infinite loop in 'perf report'. Changing the return of fetch_mmaped_event() to ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) for that case gets us out of that infinite loop.
