perf/x86/intel: Rework the large PEBS setup code
In order to allow optimizing perf_pmu_sched_task() we must ensure perf_sched_cb_{inc,dec}() are no longer called from NMI context; this means that pmu::{start,stop}() can no longer use them. Prepare for this by reworking the whole large PEBS setup code. The current code relied on the cpuc->pebs_enabled state, however since that reflects the current active state as per pmu::{start,stop}() we can no longer rely on this. Introduce two counters: cpuc->n_pebs and cpuc->n_large_pebs which count the total number of PEBS events and the number of PEBS events that have FREERUNNING set, resp.. With this we can tell if the current setup requires a single record interrupt threshold or can use a larger buffer. This also improves the code in that it re-enables the large threshold once the PEBS event that required single record gets removed.
