KVM: x86/pmu: Prevent zero period event from being repeatedly released
The current vPMU can reuse the same pmc->perf_event for the same hardware event via pmc_pause/resume_counter(), but this optimization does not apply to a portion of the TSX events (e.g., "event=0x3c,in_tx=1, in_tx_cp=1"), where event->attr.sample_period is legally zero at creation, thus making the perf call to perf_event_period() meaningless (no need to adjust sample period in this case), and instead causing such reusable perf_events to be repeatedly released and created. Avoid releasing zero sample_period events by checking is_sampling_event() to follow the previously enable/disable optimization.
