From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

When x86_pmu.num_counters is set to INTEL_PMC_MAX_GENERIC we end up
with the 32 bit integer constant 1 being shifted 32 places leading to
undefined behaviour.  Fix this by shifting 1ULL instead of 1.

Fixes CoverityScan CID#1192105 ("Bad bit shift operation")
