Subject: [PATCH] perf/arm-cmn: Reset DTM_PMU_CONFIG at probe

Although we treat the DTM counters as free-running such that we're not
too concerned about the initial DTM state, it's possible for a previous
user to have left DTM counters enabled and paired with DTC counters.
Thus if the first events are scheduled using some, but not all, DTMs,
the as-yet-unused ones could end up adding spurious increments to the
event counts at the DTC. Make sure we sync our initial DTM_PMU_CONFIG
state to all the DTMs at probe time to avoid that possibility.
