perf_counter: powerpc: Fix race causing "oops trying to read PMC0" errors

When using interrupting counters and limited (non-interrupting)
counters at the same time, it's possible that we get an
interrupt in write_mmcr0() after writing MMCR0 but before we
have set up the counters using limited PMCs.  What happens then
is that we get into perf_counter_interrupt() with
counter->hw.idx = 0 for the limited counters, leading to the
"oops trying to read PMC0" error message being printed.

This fixes the problem by making perf_counter_interrupt()
robust against counter->hw.idx being zero (the counter is just
ignored in that case) and also by changing write_mmcr0() to
write MMCR0 initially with the counter overflow interrupt
enable bits masked (set to 0).  If the MMCR0 value requested by
the caller has either of those bits set, we write MMCR0 again
with the requested value of those bits after setting up the
limited counters properly.
