Marco Elver e0e5c5ea30 perf: Fix data race between pin_count increment/decrement 
commit 6c605f8371 upstream.

KCSAN reports a data race between increment and decrement of pin_count:

  write to 0xffff888237c2d4e0 of 4 bytes by task 15740 on cpu 1:
   find_get_context		kernel/events/core.c:4617
   __do_sys_perf_event_open	kernel/events/core.c:12097 [inline]
   __se_sys_perf_event_open	kernel/events/core.c:11933
   ...
  read to 0xffff888237c2d4e0 of 4 bytes by task 15743 on cpu 0:
   perf_unpin_context		kernel/events/core.c:1525 [inline]
   __do_sys_perf_event_open	kernel/events/core.c:12328 [inline]
   __se_sys_perf_event_open	kernel/events/core.c:11933
   ...

Because neither read-modify-write here is atomic, this can lead to one
of the operations being lost, resulting in an inconsistent pin_count.
Fix it by adding the missing locking in the CPU-event case.

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
