[PATCH 2/3] perf/imx_ddr: adjust counter result after read cycle counter

Because we initialize CP filed to shorten counter0 overflow time, the cycle
counter will start couting from a fixed/base value each time. We need to
remove the base from the result too. Therefore, we could get precise result
from cycle counter.
