perf_counter: fix uninitialized usage of event_list

Impact: fix boot crash

When doing the generic context switch event I ran into some early
boot hangs, which were caused by inf func recursion (event, fault,
event, fault).

I eventually tracked it down to event_list not being initialized
at the time of the first event. Fix this.
