perf_counter: change event definition

Browse source 
Currently the definition of an event is slightly ambiguous. We have
wakeup events, for poll() and SIGIO, which are either generated
when a record crosses a page boundary (hw_events.wakeup_events == 0),
or every wakeup_events new records.

Now a record can be either a counter overflow record, or a number of
different things, like the mmap PROT_EXEC region notifications.

Then there is the PERF_COUNTER_IOC_REFRESH event limit, which only
considers counter overflows.

This patch changes then wakeup_events and SIGIO notification to only
consider overflow events. Furthermore it changes the SIGIO notification
to report SIGHUP when the event limit is reached and the counter will
be disabled.
