perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix hardcoded socket 0 assumption in the Haswell init code

hswep_uncore_cpu_init() uses a hardcoded physical package id 0 for the boot
cpu. This works as long as the boot CPU is actually on the physical package
0, which is normaly the case after power on / reboot.

But it fails with a NULL pointer dereference when a kdump kernel is started
on a secondary socket which has a different physical package id because the
locigal package translation for physical package 0 does not exist.

Use the logical package id of the boot cpu instead of hard coded 0.

[ tglx: Rewrote changelog once more ]
