perf/x86/intel/uncore: Use HRTIMER_MODE_HARD for detecting overflows

hrtimer handlers can be deferred to softirq context and affect timely
detection of counter overflows. Hence switch to HRTIMER_MODE_HARD.

Disabling and re-enabling IRQs in the hrtimer handler is not required
as pmu->start() and pmu->stop() can no longer intervene while updating
event->hw.prev_count.
