[64/70] perf: Fix throttle logic

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

2.6.37-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>

commit 4fe757dd48a9e95e1a071291f15dda5421dacb66 upstream.

It was possible to call pmu::start() on an already running event. In
particular this lead so some wreckage as the hrtimer events would
re-initialize active timers.

This was due to throttled events being activated again by scheduling.
Scheduling in a context would add and force start events, resulting in
running events with a possible throttle status. The next tick to hit
that task will then try to unthrottle the event and call ->start() on
an already running event.
