perf/core: Robustify the perf_cgroup_from_task() RCU checks
This patch reinforces the lockdep checks performed by perf_cgroup_from_tsk() by passing the perf_event_context whenever possible. It is okay to not hold the RCU read lock when we know we hold the ctx->lock. This patch makes sure this property holds. In some functions, such as perf_cgroup_sched_in(), we do not pass the context because we are sure we are holding the RCU read lock.
