On Sparc64 perf-trace is failing in many spots due to extended load
instructions being used on misaligned accesses.

sample->raw_data is guaranteed to not be 8-byte aligned because it is preceded
by the size as a u3. So accessing raw data with an extended load instruction causes
the SIGBUS. Resolve by using memcpy to a temporary variable of appropriate size.
