[PATCH bpf-next] libbpf: remove sample_period init in perf_buffer

[Tao Chen]

It seems that sample_period no used in perf buffer, actually only
wakeup_events valid about events aggregation for wakeup. So remove
it to avoid causing confusion.

The patch has already been accepted and merged into bpf-next:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next.git/commit/?id=64821d25f05ac468d435e61669ae745ce5a633ea

Interestingly, patchwork-bot+netdevbpf@kernel.org didn't send a
notification about this.

Yeah, we had a day or two of patchwork not working. The patch was
applied. Sorry, I forgot to reply manually to let everyone know.
