perf_events: Fix FORK events

Commit 22e19085 ("Honour event state for aux stream data")
introduced a bug where we would drop FORK events.

The thing is that we deliver FORK events to the child process'
event, which at that time will be PERF_EVENT_STATE_INACTIVE
because the child won't be scheduled in (we're in the middle of
fork).

Solve this twice, change the event state filter to exclude only
disabled (STATE_OFF) or worse, and deliver FORK events to the
current (parent).
