mainlining shenanigans

The synthesize benchmark, run on a single process and thread, shows
perf_event__synthesize_mmap_events as the hottest function with fgets
and sscanf taking the majority of execution time.
fscanf performs similarly well. Replace the scanf call with manual
reading of each field of the /proc/pid/maps line, and remove some
unnecessary buffering.
This change also addresses potential, but unlikely, buffer overruns for
the string values read by scanf.
Performance before is:
$ sudo perf bench internals synthesize -m 16 -M 16 -s -t

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
