Ingo Molnar a4234bfcf4 perf_events: Optimize the swcounter hotpath
The structure init creates a bit memcpy, which shows
up big time in perf annotate output:

          :      ffffffff810a859d <__perf_sw_event>:
     1.68 :      ffffffff810a859d:       55                      push   %rbp
     1.69 :      ffffffff810a859e:       41 89 fa                mov    %edi,%r10d
     0.01 :      ffffffff810a85a1:       49 89 c9                mov    %rcx,%r9
     0.00 :      ffffffff810a85a4:       31 c0                   xor    %eax,%eax
     1.71 :      ffffffff810a85a6:       b9 16 00 00 00          mov    $0x16,%ecx
     0.00 :      ffffffff810a85ab:       48 89 e5                mov    %rsp,%rbp
     0.00 :      ffffffff810a85ae:       48 83 ec 60             sub    $0x60,%rsp
     1.52 :      ffffffff810a85b2:       48 8d 7d a0             lea    -0x60(%rbp),%rdi
    85.20 :      ffffffff810a85b6:       f3 ab                   rep stos %eax,%es:(%rdi)

None of the callees depends on the structure being pre-initialized,
so only initialize ->addr. This gets rid of the memcpy overhead.
