Frequency sampling mode dynamically adjusts the sample period so as to
hit a particular frequency of samples. The sample period starts at just
1 and then gets increased if the interrupt rate is too high. This
changed sample period needs handling in metag_pmu_event_set_period to
update period_left (as the ARM equivalent does). The calculated delta
also needs subtracting from period_left in metag_pmu_event_update in
order to hit the conditional blocks in metag_pmu_event_set_period which
update last_period (which is used in the dynamic sampling period
calculation).
