[PATCH 2/2] perf: correct event accounting imbalance on error path

[Hendrik Brueckner <brueckner@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

If the perf_event_open() syscall is called for sampling (perf record), but
the selected PMU does not support the sampling, the event is freed.  This
particular free includes a decrement of the perf_sched_events jump label.

However, the accounting which actually increase perf_sched_events is not
yet called and, therefore, triggers a warning in the jump_label code.

On s390, this ends in this warning:

To solve this problem, just free the event without taking care of the
accounting.
