Subject: [PATCH] perf; Fix PMU format parsing test failure

On POWER, the 'perf format parsing' test always fails.

Looks like it is because memset() is being passed number of longs
rather than number of bytes. It is interesting that the test always
passes on my x86 box.

With this patch, the test passes on POWER and continues to pass on x86.
