[PATCH -fixes] drivers: perf: Fix panic in riscv SBI mmap support

The following panic can happen when mmap is called before the pmu add
callback which sets the hardware counter index: this happens for example
with the following command `perf record --no-bpf-event -n kill`.

[   99.463335] Kernel BUG [#2]

To circumvent this, try to enable userspace access to the hardware counter
when it is selected in addition to when the event is mapped. And vice-versa
when the event is stopped/unmapped.
