alpha: Shift perf event pending work earlier in timer interrupt
Pending work from the performance event subsystem is executed in
the timer interrupt. This patch shifts the call to
perf_event_do_pending() before the call to update_process_times()
as the latter may call back into the perf event subsystem and it
is prudent to have the pending work executed first.
