[PATCH 2/2] events: callchain: Use RCU API to access RCU pointer

[Amol Grover]

callchain_cpus_entries is annotated as an RCU pointer.
Hence rcu_dereference_protected or similar RCU API is
required to dereference the pointer.

This fixes the following sparse warning
kernel/events/callchain.c:65:17: warning: incorrect type in assignment
