Peter Zijlstra 5a50f52917 perf/x86/ibs: Fix race with IBS_STARTING state
While tracing the IBS bits I saw the NMI hitting between clearing
IBS_STARTING and the actual MSR writes to disable the counter.

Since IBS_STARTING was cleared, the handler assumed these were spurious
NMIs and because STOPPING wasn't set yet either, insta-triggered an
"Unknown NMI".

Cure this by clearing IBS_STARTING after disabling the hardware.
