perf_counter: Fix perf_copy_attr() pointer arithmetic

There is still some weird code in per_copy_attr(). Which supposedly
checks that all bytes trailing a struct are zero.

It doesn't seem to get pointer arithmetic right. Since it
increments an iterating pointer by sizeof(unsigned long) rather
than 1.
