perf_event: Fix broken calc_timer_values()

We detected a serious issue with PERF_SAMPLE_READ and
timing information when events were being multiplexing.

Samples would have time_running > time_enabled. That
was easy to reproduce with a libpfm4 example (ran 3
times to cause multiplexing on Core 2):

 $ syst_smpl -e uops_retired:freq=1 &
 $ syst_smpl -e uops_retired:freq=1 &
 $ syst_smpl -e uops_retired:freq=1 &
 IIP:0x0000000040062d ... PERIOD:2355332948 ENA=40144625315 RUN=60014875184
 syst_smpl: WARNING: time_running > time_enabled
	63277537998 uops_retired:freq=1 , scaled

The bug was not present in kernel up to (and including) 3.0. It turns
out the bug was introduced by the following commit:

commit c4794295917ebeda8013b6cb9c8d71ab4f74a1fa

    events: Move lockless timer calculation into helper function

The parameters of the function got reversed yet the call sites
were not updated to reflect the change. That lead to time_running
and time_enabled being swapped. That had no effect when there was
no multiplexing because in that case time_running = time_enabled
but it would show up in any other scenario.
