[PATCH] arm64: perf: Ensure EL0 access is disabled at reset

The ER, SW, and EN bits in the PMUSERENR_EL0 register are UNKNOWN at
reset and the register is never initialized, so EL0 access could be
enabled by default on some implementations. Let's initialize
PMUSERENR_EL0 to a known state with EL0 access disabled.
