perf: Fix interrupt handler timing harness
commit e5302920da9ef23f9d19d4e9ac85704cc25bee7a upstream. This patch fixes a serious bug in: 14c63f17b1fd perf: Drop sample rate when sampling is too slow There was an misunderstanding on the API of the do_div() macro. It returns the remainder of the division and this was not what the function expected leading to disabling the interrupt latency watchdog. This patch also remove a duplicate assignment in perf_sample_event_took().
