perf, core: Fix initial task_ctx/event installation A lost Quilt refresh of 2c29ef0fef8 (perf: Simplify and fix __perf_install_in_context()) is causing grief and lockups, reported by Jiri Olsa. When installing an event in a task context, there's a number of issues: - there might not be an existing task context, in which case we should install the now current context; - there might already be a context, not the current one, in which case we should de-schedule the old and install the new; these cases were dealt with in the lost refresh, however there is one further case that was found in testing: - there might already be a context, the current one, in which case we should still de-schedule, and should take care to re-install it (note that task_ctx_sched_out() clears cpuctx->task_ctx).
