perf trace: Disable events and drain events when forked workload ends

We were not checking in the inner event processing loop if the forked workload
had finished, which, on a busy system, may make it take a long time trying to
drain events, entering a seemingly neverending loop, waiting for the system to
get idle enough to make it drain the buffers.

Fix it by disabling the events when 'done' is true, in the inner loop, to start
draining what is in the buffers.

Now:
