perf/arm-cci: Remove unnecessary period adjustment

Browse source 
Since sampling events are rejected up-front by cci_pmu_event_init(), it
doesn't make much sense to go fiddling with the sampling period later.
This would seem to be just another leftover artefact of the arm_pmu
framwork, and as such can go.
