perf/core: Fix perf_sample_data not properly initialized for different swevents in perf_tp_event()
data->sample_flags may be modified in perf_prepare_sample(),
in perf_tp_event(), different swevents use the same on-stack
perf_sample_data, the previous swevent may change sample_flags in
perf_prepare_sample(), as a result, some members of perf_sample_data are
not correctly initialized when next swevent_event preparing sample
(for example data->id, the value varies according to swevent).
A simple scenario triggers this problem is as follows:
# perf record -e sched:sched_switch --switch-output-event sched:sched_switch -a sleep 1
[ perf record: dump data: Woken up 0 times ]
[ perf record: Dump perf.data.2023041209014396 ]

# perf script -i perf.data.2023041209014396
0x11d58 [0x80]: failed to process type: 9 [Bad address]
Solution: Re-initialize perf_sample_data after each event is processed.
Note that data->raw->frag.data may be accessed in perf_tp_event_match().
Therefore, need to init sample_data and then go through swevent hlist to prevent
reference of NULL pointer, reported by [1].
After fix:
# perf record -e sched:sched_switch --switch-output-event sched:sched_switch -a sleep 1
