[PATCH v8 08/14] perf/core: set the event->owner before event_init

[Wei Wang <wei.w.wang@intel.com>]

Kernel and user events can be distinguished by checking event->owner. Some
pmu driver implementation may need to know event->owner in event_init. For
example, intel_pmu_setup_lbr_filter treats a kernel event with
exclude_host set as an lbr event created for guest lbr emulation, which
doesn't need a pmu counter.

So move the event->owner assignment into perf_event_alloc to have it
set before event_init is called.
