[PATCH] arm: perf: Fix build break due to a typo

armpmu is a pointer to a structure - We need to use the
structure pointer operator to access num_events, and not
the structure member operator.
This fixes the following build break when building for OMAP4.
CC arch/arm/kernel/perf_event.o
arch/arm/kernel/perf_event.c: In function 'armpmu_event_init':
arch/arm/kernel/perf_event.c:543: error: request for member 'num_events' in something not a structure or union
make[1]: *** [arch/arm/kernel/perf_event.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/arm/kernel] Error 2

This break is reproducible on linux-next as of 20101014.
This was introduced in commit 15ac9a395a75 in linux-next
<http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git;a=commitdiff;h=15ac9a395a753cb28c674e7ea80386ffdff21785>
Strangely, I did not catch it with a standard omap2plus_defconfig
build, but it showed up when I build a custom OMAP4-only config.
I've saved the defconfig for later analysis.
