drm/i915/perf: no head/tail ref in gen7_oa_read
This avoids redundantly passing an (inout) head and tail pointer to gen7_append_oa_reports() from gen7_oa_read which doesn't need to reference either itself. Moving the head/tail reads and writes into gen7_append_oa_reports should have no functional effect except to avoid some redundant head pointer writes in cases where nothing was copied to userspace. This is a stepping stone towards updating how the head and tail pointer state is managed to improve the workaround for the OA unit's tail pointer race. It reduces the number of places we need to read/write the head and tail pointers.
