perf_events: Fix bad software/trace event recursion counting

Commit 4ed7c92d68a5387ba5f7030dc76eab03558e27f5
(perf_events: Undo some recursion damage) has introduced a bad
reference counting of the recursion context. putting the context
behaves like getting it, dropping every software/trace events
after the first one in a context.
