OProfile: Fix buffer synchronization for IBS
The patch is needed since there is some IBS code in add_ibs_begin() that handles more than one sample per iteration. This requires calling get_slots() during each loop. This fixes the current problem, but a proper solution that reworks the cpu buffer synchronization is needed here in the future.
