Subject: [PATCH v6 02/12] arm-cci: Group writes to counter

Add a helper to group the writes to PMU counter, this will be
used to delay setting the event period to pmu::pmu_enable()

Changes since V5:
  - Use the prev_count from event->hw for the counter value, than
    using a single value for all the counters.
