perf stat: Reset previous counts on repeat with interval
When using 'perf stat' with repeat and interval option, it shows wrong
values for events.
The wrong values will be shown for the first interval on the second and
subsequent repetitions.
Without the fix:
# perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5
2.000282489 53 faults
2.000282489 513 sched:sched_switch

#
prev_raw_counts is allocated when using intervals. This is used when
calculating the difference in the counts of events when using interval.
The current counts are stored in prev_raw_counts to calculate the
differences in the next iteration.
On the first interval of the second and subsequent repetitions,
prev_raw_counts would be the values stored in the last interval of the
previous repetitions, while the current counts will only be for the
first interval of the current repetition.
Hence there is a possibility of events showing up as big number.
Fix this by resetting prev_raw_counts whenever perf stat repeats the
command.
With the fix:
# perf stat -r 3 -I 2000 -e faults -e sched:sched_switch -a sleep 5
2.019349347 2,597 faults
2.019349347 2,753 sched:sched_switch

5.019415481 1,356 sched:sched_switch
2.000178813 8,468 faults
2.000178813 2,254 sched:sched_switch
4.000404621 7,440 faults

Committer notes:
This was broken since the cset introducing the --interval feature, i.e.
--repeat + --interval wasn't tested at that point, add the Fixes tag so
that automatic scripts can pick this up.
