It's also used as a pre-overflow counter value. And that's mainly the use of
the newly introduced ALL_SET_AT(), and PRE_OVERFLOW_AT(). The ALL_SET_AT()
changes in this commit should be moved to commit 3; I will do that plus use
pmevcntr_mask() instead of ALL_SET_AT():

	uint64_t all_set = pmevcntr_mask();
	...
	/* overflow on odd counter */
	write_regn_el0(pmevcntr, 0, pre_overflow);
	write_regn_el0(pmevcntr, 1, all_set);

Will also use this instead of the uintxx_t casting.
