* Add 100_len_raw_events.patch: Cherrypick upstream patch to correct the
use of the calculated structure length for memory allocations. Fixes
issue where incorrect memory size was allocated, leading to valuator
data overwriting memory, resulting in an error "Invalid write of size
1" and heap corruption causing applications to crash when they use Raw
Events. (LP: #770522)
