Subject: [PATCH v2] psi: Fix avg trigger being fired unexpectedly.

commit 915a087e4c473("psi: Fix trigger being fired unexpectedly at initial")
fixes unexpected event fired when group->total accumulated for PSI_POLL.
But, for PSI_AVGS, win->value should be initialized with group->total[PSI_AVGS].
Moreover, to get exact initial value for win->value, it should be set
under each trigger lock to avoid concurrent changes to group->total[].
