perfcounters/powerpc: fix oops with multiple counters in a group
Impact: fix oops-causing bug This fixes a bug in the powerpc hw_perf_counter_init where the code didn't initialize ctrs[n] before passing the ctrs array to check_excludes, leading to possible oopses and other incorrect behaviour. This fixes it by initializing ctrs[n] correctly. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
