up to:  e3dfd64c1f34: perf: Fix missing RCU reader protection in perf_event_clear_cpumask()

A single fix for perf:

  perf_event_clear_cpumask() uses list_for_each_entry_rcu() without being
  in a RCU read side critical section, which triggers a "suspicious RCU
  usage" warning.

  It turns out that the list walk does not be RCU protected because the
  write side lock is held in this contxt.

  Change it to a regular list walk.

Thanks,

	tglx
