[PATCH] perf/core: make sure group events are for the same cpu
From: Zhou Chengming
Date: Sat Jun 17 2017 - 03:44:51 EST
The else branch are broken for taskctx: two events can on the same
taskctx, but on different cpu. This patch fix it, we don't need to
check move_group. We first make sure we're on the same task, or both
per-cpu events, and then make sure we're events for the same cpu.
