perf, x86: Fix Intel-nhm PMU programming errata workaround

Browse Source 
Fix the Errata AAK100/AAP53/BD53 workaround, the officialy documented
workaround we implemented in:

 11164cd: perf, x86: Add Nehelem PMU programming errata workaround

doesn't actually work fully and causes a stuck PMU state
under load and non-functioning perf profiling.

A functional workaround was found by trial & error.

Affects all Nehalem-class Intel PMUs.

* in sequence on the same PMC or on different PMCs.

* In practise it appears some of these events do in fact count, and
* we need to programm all 4 events.
