perf_counter: uncouple data_head updates from wakeups
Keep data_head up-to-date irrespective of notifications. This fixes
the case where you disable a counter and don't get a notification for
the last few pending events, and it also allows polling usage.
[ Impact: increase precision of perfcounter mmap-ed fields ]
