Atomic reference counters were replaced by refcount_t in
  commit 79c5fe6db8c7 ("perf/core: Fix error handling in perf_event_alloc()")

In util/cgroup.c atomic_inc was replaced by refcount_inc, but the latter
is not mean to initiliaze refcounts with zero value. Add a path
to initialize cgrp->refcnt == 0 using refcount_set.

Before this patch:

  $ perf stat -e cycles -C 0 -G /
  perf_before: /usr/local/.../tools/include/linux/refcount.h:108: refcount_inc: 
Assertion `!(!refcount_inc_not_zero(r))' failed.
  Aborted (core dumped)

After this patch:

  $ perf stat -e cycles -C 0 -G /
  Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 0':
     17,516,664      cycles                    /
