[ Upstream commit d51291cb8f32bfae6b331e1838651f3ddefa73a5 ]

Currently perf-stat (aka, counting mode) does not work:

$ perf stat ls
...
 Performance counter stats for 'ls':

          1.585665      task-clock (msec)         #    0.580 CPUs utilized
                24      context-switches          #    0.015 M/sec
                 0      cpu-migrations            #    0.000 K/sec
                86      page-faults               #    0.054 M/sec
   <not supported>      cycles

   <not supported>      stalled-cycles-backend
   <not supported>      instructions
   <not supported>      branches
   <not supported>      branch-misses

The reason is that state is never reset (stays with PERF_HES_UPTODATE set).
Add a call to sparc_pmu_enable_event during the added_event handling.
Clean up the encoding since pmu_start calls sparc_pmu_enable_event which
does the same. Passing PERF_EF_RELOAD to sparc_pmu_start means the call
to sparc_perf_event_set_period can be removed as well.

With this patch:

$ perf stat ls
...
