perf/core: Fix perf_cgroup_switch()

Browse source 
There is a race problem that can trigger WARN_ON_ONCE(cpuctx->cgrp)
in perf_cgroup_switch().

CPU1						CPU2
perf_cgroup_sched_out(prev, next)
  cgrp1 = perf_cgroup_from_task(prev)
  cgrp2 = perf_cgroup_from_task(next)
  if (cgrp1 != cgrp2)
    perf_cgroup_switch(prev, PERF_CGROUP_SWOUT)
						cgroup_migrate_execute()
						  task->cgroups = ?
						  perf_cgroup_attach()
						    task_function_call(task, __perf_cgroup_move)
perf_cgroup_sched_in(prev, next)
  cgrp1 = perf_cgroup_from_task(prev)
  cgrp2 = perf_cgroup_from_task(next)
  if (cgrp1 != cgrp2)
    perf_cgroup_switch(next, PERF_CGROUP_SWIN)
						__perf_cgroup_move()
						  perf_cgroup_switch(task, PERF_CGROUP_SWOUT | PERF_CGROUP_SWIN)

The commit a8d757ef07 ("perf events: Fix slow and broken cgroup
context switch code") want to skip perf_cgroup_switch() when the
perf_cgroup of "prev" and "next" are the same.

But task->cgroups can change in concurrent with context_switch()
in cgroup_migrate_execute(). If cgrp1 == cgrp2 in sched_out(),
cpuctx won't do sched_out. Then task->cgroups changed cause
cgrp1 != cgrp2 in sched_in(), cpuctx will do sched_in. So trigger
WARN_ON_ONCE(cpuctx->cgrp).

Even though __perf_cgroup_move() will be synchronized as the context
switch disables the interrupt, context_switch() still can see the
task->cgroups is changing in the middle, since task->cgroups changed
before sending IPI.

So we have to combine perf_cgroup_sched_in() into perf_cgroup_sched_out(),
unified into perf_cgroup_switch(), to fix the incosistency between
perf_cgroup_sched_out() and perf_cgroup_sched_in().

But we can't just compare prev->cgroups with next->cgroups to decide
whether to skip cpuctx sched_out/in since the prev->cgroups is changing
too. For example:

CPU1					CPU2
					cgroup_migrate_execute()
					  prev->cgroups = ?
					  perf_cgroup_attach()
					    task_function_call(task, __perf_cgroup_move)
perf_cgroup_switch(task)
  cgrp1 = perf_cgroup_from_task(prev)
  cgrp2 = perf_cgroup_from_task(next)
  if (cgrp1 != cgrp2)
    cpuctx sched_out/in ...
					task_function_call() will return -ESRCH

In the above example, prev->cgroups changing cause (cgrp1 == cgrp2)
to be true, so skip cpuctx sched_out/in. And later task_function_call()
would return -ESRCH since the prev task isn't running on cpu anymore.
So we would leave perf_events of the old prev->cgroups still sched on
the CPU, which is wrong.

The solution is that we should use cpuctx->cgrp to compare with
the next task's perf_cgroup. Since cpuctx->cgrp can only be changed
on local CPU, and we have irq disabled, we can read cpuctx->cgrp to
compare without holding ctx lock.
