perf_counter: Fix inheritance cleanup code
Clean up code that open-coded the list_{add,del}_counter() code in __perf_counter_exit_task() which consequently diverged. This could lead to software counter crashes. Also, fold the ctx->nr_counter inc/dec into those functions and clean up some of the related code.
