perf: arm_pmuv3: Don't disable counter in armv8pmu_enable_event()

Currently armv8pmu_enable_event() starts by disabling the event counter
it has been asked to enable. This should not be necessary as the counter
(and the PMU as a whole) should not be active when
armv8pmu_enable_event() is called.

Remove the redundant call to armv8pmu_disable_event_counter(). At the
same time, remove the comment immeditately above as everything it says
is obvious from the function names below.
