[PATCH] perf: fix ordering in perf_output_sample()

[PATCH] perf: fix ordering in perf_output_sample()

[Stephane Eranian]

It seems like the merge of commits a7ac67ea and bce38cd5
caused an ordering problem in perf_output_sample().
The watermark check must be done at the very end of the
function and not in the middle of writing data to the buffer.
