[PATCH] perf record: Fix perf_can_aux_sample_size()

[Adrian Hunter <adrian.hunter@intel.com>]

perf_can_aux_sample_size() always returned true because it did not pass
the attribute size to sys_perf_event_open, nor correctly check the
return value and errno.

Before:

  # perf record --aux-sample -e '{intel_pt//u,branch-misses:u}'
  Error:
  The sys_perf_event_open() syscall returned with 7 (Argument list too long) for event (branch-misses:u).
  /bin/dmesg | grep -i perf may provide additional information.

After:

  # perf record --aux-sample -e '{intel_pt//u,branch-misses:u}'
  AUX area sampling is not supported by kernel
