perf/x86/intel: Move NMI clearing to end of PMI handler

This avoids some problems with spurious PMIs on Haswell.
Haswell seems to behave more like P4 in this regard. Do
the same thing as the P4 perf handler by unmasking
the NMI only at the end. Shouldn't make any difference
for earlier family 6 cores.

(Tested on Haswell, IvyBridge, Westmere, Saltwell (Atom).)
