perf counters: clean up state transitions
Impact: cleanup Introduce a proper enum for the 3 states of a counter: PERF_COUNTER_STATE_OFF = -1 PERF_COUNTER_STATE_INACTIVE = 0 PERF_COUNTER_STATE_ACTIVE = 1 and rename counter->active to counter->state and propagate the changes everywhere. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
