KVM: x86/pmu: Prevent zero period event from being repeatedly released

Browse source 
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.
