Subject: [PATCH] perf_event: initialize data.period in perf_swevent_hrtimer()

In current code in perf_swevent_hrtimer(), data.period is not initialized,
The result is obvious wrong:

# ./perf record -f -e cpu-clock make
# ./perf report
# Samples: 1740
#
# Overhead   Command                                   ...... 
# ........  ........  ..........................................
