This issue caused by PC value is not correct. regs are sampled in 
function perf_output_sample_regs, that call perf_reg_value(regs, bit) to 
get PC value.
PC value is regs[15] in perf_reg_value() function. it should be regs[32].

perf_output_sample_regs(struct perf_output_handle *handle,
                         struct pt_regs *regs, u64 mask)
{
         int bit;
         DECLARE_BITMAP(_mask, 64);

         bitmap_from_u64(_mask, mask);
         for_each_set_bit(bit, _mask, sizeof(mask) * BITS_PER_BYTE) {
                 u64 val;

                 val = perf_reg_value(regs, bit);
                 perf_output_put(handle, val);
         }
}
