perf report: Remove the first overflow check for branch counters
A false overflow warning is triggered if a sample doesn't have any LBRs recorded and the branch counters feature is enabled. The current code does OVERFLOW_CHECK_u64() at the very beginning when reading the information of branch counters. It assumes that there is at least one LBR in the PEBS record. But it is a valid case that 0 LBR is recorded especially in a high context switch. Remove the OVERFLOW_CHECK_u64(). The later OVERFLOW_CHECK() should be good enough to check the overflow when reading the information of the branch counters.
