perf/core: Fix hardlockup failure caused by perf throttle
commit e050e3f0 ("perf: Fix broken interrupt rate throttling") introduces a change in throttling threshold judgment. Before this, compare hwc->interrupts and max_samples_per_tick, then increase hwc->interrupts by 1, but this commit reverses order of these two behaviors, causing the semantics of max_samples_per_tick to change. In literal sense of "max_samples_per_tick", if hwc->interrupts == max_samples_per_tick, it should not be throttled, therefore, the judgment condition should be changed to "hwc->interrupts > max_samples_per_tick". In fact, this may cause the hardlockup to fail, The minimum value of max_samples_per_tick may be 1, in this case, the return value of __perf_event_account_interrupt function is 1. As a result, nmi_watchdog gets throttled, which would stop PMU (Use x86 architecture as an example, see x86_pmu_handle_irq).
