perf/x86: Fix LBR call stack save/restore

This fixes a bug I added in the following commit:

  90405aa02247 ("perf/x86/intel/lbr: Limit LBR accesses to TOS in callstack mode")

The bug could lead to lost LBR call stacks. When restoring the LBR state
we need to use the TOS of the previous context, not the current context.
To do that we need to save/restore the TOS.
