[PATCH v3 2/3] powerpc/perf: Update prev_count of event to get accurate values

[Gautam Menghani <gautam@linux.ibm.com>]

When vpa_pmu_read() is called twice while a vCPU is running on the same
host cpu, the "event->hw.prev_count" variable returns the same old value on
the 2nd read which results in a larger value getting added to
event->count.

Fix this by updating the event->hw.prev_count every time vpa_pmu_read()
is called.
