[PATCH] perf: Don't enable the perf_event without in PERF_ATTACH_CONTEXT status

[Chen LinX]

From: "Chen LinX" <linx.z.chen@xxxxxxxxx>

when do cpu hotplug test and run below perf test together, pmu may access freed perf_event

while true;
do
perf record -a -g -f sleep 10
rm perf.*
done

the scenario is that when cpu offline firstly, the 'perf_cpu_notify' will disable event on the
pmu and remove it from the context list. after cpu online, the perf app may enable the event
that without linked in context list again. when cpu offine the second time, the 'perf_cpu_notify'
can't disable event on the pmu as the event doesn't link to context list. the perf app may free
this event later(the free procedure try to disable event on the pmu but as the cpu is offline,
the 'cpu_function_call(event->cpu, __perf_remove_from_context, event)' is failed). then after
cpu online again, pmu will access freed perf_event and hit panic.

so adding PERF_ATTACH_CONTEXT flag check before enable event to avoid this scenario.
