From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung....@lge.com>

perf-record updates the header in the perf.data file at termination.
Without this update perf-report (and other processing built-ins) it
caused an infinite loop when perf report (or something like) called.

This is because the algorithm in __perf_session__process_events()
depends on the data_size which is read from file header.  Use file
size directly instead in this case to do the best-effort processing.
