perf record: Support s390 random socket_id assignment

On s390 the socket identifier assigned to a CPU identifier is random and
(depending on the configuration of the LPAR) may be higher than the CPU
identifier. This is currently not supported.

Fix this by allowing arbitrary socket identifiers being assigned to
CPU id.

Output before:

  [root@p23lp27 perf]# ./perf report --header -I -v
  ...
  socket_id number is too big.You may need to upgrade the perf tool.
  Error:
  The perf.data file has no samples!
