perf_event_read() does two things:
- call the PMU to read/update the counter value, and
- compute the total count of the event and its children
Not all callers need both. perf_event_reset() for instance needs the
first piece but doesn't need the second. Similarly, when we implement
the ability to read a group of events using the transaction interface,
we would need the two pieces done independently.
Break up perf_event_read() and have it just read/update the counter
and have the callers compute the total count if necessary.
