This patch fixes broken PEBS support on Intel Atom and Core2
due to wrong pointer arithmetic in intel_pmu_drain_pebs_core().
The get_next_pebs_record_by_bit() was called on PEBS format fmt0
which does not use the pebs_record_nhm layout.
Fixes: 21509084f ("perf/x86/intel: Handle multiple records in the PEBS buffer")
