[PATCH 8/9] x86, perf: Optimize v4 LBR unfreezing

[Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org>]

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

In Arch perfmon v4 the GLOBAL_STATUS reset automatically unfreezes
LBRs. So no need to do it manually in the LBR code. Add a check
to skip it.

v2: Move test up to beginning of function.
