perf/core: Provide a kernel-internal interface to pause perf_event

Browse Source 
Exporting perf_event_pause() as an external accessor for kernel users (such
as KVM) who may do both disable perf_event and read count with just one
time to hold perf_event_ctx_lock. Also the value could be reset optionally.
