    s390/pai: initialize event count once at initialization
    
    [ Upstream commit b286997e83dcf7b498329a66a8a22fc8a5bf50f0 ]
    
    Event count value is initialized and set to zero in function
    paicrypt_start().  This function is called once per CPU when an
    event is started on that CPU. This leads to event count value
    being set to zero as many times as there are online CPUs.
    This is not necessary. The event count value is bound to the event
    and it is sufficient to initialize the event counter once at
    event creation time. This is done when the event structure
    is dynamicly allocated with __GFP_ZERO flag. This sets
    member count to zero.
