`i` is iterating over longs here, not individual counters. Using `i` twice in
the same expression like this makes no sense.

And again, since you made temp_ctr_overflow_mask an `unsigned long`, this BIT
expression overflows during the second iteration of the loop on riscv32.

It is entirely possible for the correct value of a counter to be zero when some
other counter overflows. But here if a counter with value zero is clobbered by a
nonzero value, the correct value will not be restored.

This doesn't need to be inside the loop. And if temp_ctr_overflow_mask is the
64-bit combination of the two 32-bit values from the SBI calls (which seems to
be the intention), then we already know there is at least one set bit, since
this is called from the overflow IRQ handler.

This doesn't work either... for riscv32 you have to copy the initial values for
counters 32-63 to ctr_values indexes 0-31, since that is where the SBI
implementation expects to find them. And since this clobbers counters 0-31,
those need to be preserved somewhere. That's why I recommended a shadow copy of
ctr_values -- globally, not local to pmu_sbi_stop_hw_ctrs().

Also, you need SBI_PMU_START_FLAG_INIT_SNAPSHOT here to actually load the values
from shared memory, so this is broken on riscv64 as well.

Overflow is `unsigned long`, so this assignment truncates ctr_overflow_mask on
riscv32.

Was this series tested on riscv32?
