There may be concurrency between perf_cgroup_switch and
perf_cgroup_event_disable. Consider the following scenario: after a new
perf cgroup event is created on CPU0, the new event might not trigger
reprogramm, leaving ctx->is_active as 0. In this case, when CPU1 disables
the perf event, it executes __perf_remove_from_context->list_del_event->
perf_cgroup_event_disable on CPU1, resulting in a race with
perf_cgroup_switch running on CPU0.
To fix this problem, expand the lock-holding critical section in
perf_cgroup_switch.
