perf/x86: Fix event scheduling

Browse Source 
Vince "Super Tester" Weaver reported a new round of syscall fuzzing (Trinity) failures,
with perf WARN_ON()s triggering. He also provided traces of the failures.

This is I think the relevant bit:

	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926153: x86_pmu_disable: x86_pmu_disable
	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926153: x86_pmu_state: Events: {
	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926156: x86_pmu_state:   0: state: .R config: ffffffffffffffff (          (null))
	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926158: x86_pmu_state:   33: state: AR config: 0 (ffff88011ac99800)
	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926159: x86_pmu_state: }
	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926160: x86_pmu_state: n_events: 1, n_added: 0, n_txn: 1
	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926161: x86_pmu_state: Assignment: {
	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926162: x86_pmu_state:   0->33 tag: 1 config: 0 (ffff88011ac99800)
	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926163: x86_pmu_state: }
	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926166: collect_events: Adding event: 1 (ffff880119ec8800)

So we add the insn:p event (fd[23]).

At this point we should have:

  n_events = 2, n_added = 1, n_txn = 1

	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926170: collect_events: Adding event: 0 (ffff8800c9e01800)
	>    pec_1076_warn-2804  [000] d...   147.926172: collect_events: Adding event: 4 (ffff8800cbab2c00)

We try and add the {BP,cycles,br_insn} group (fd[3], fd[4], fd[15]).
These events are 0:cycles and 4:br_insn, the BP event isn't x86_pmu so
that's not visible.

	group_sched_in()
	  pmu->start_txn() /* nop - BP pmu */
	  event_sched_in()
	     event->pmu->add()

So here we should end up with:

  0: n_events = 3, n_added = 2, n_txn = 2
  4: n_events = 4, n_added = 3, n_txn = 3

But seeing the below state on x86_pmu_enable(), the must have failed,
because the 0 and 4 events aren't there anymore.

Looking at group_sched_in(), since the BP is the leader, its
event_sched_in() must have succeeded, for otherwise we would not have
seen the sibling adds.

But since neither 0 or 4 are in the below state; their event_sched_in()
must have failed; but I don't see why, the complete state: 0,0,1:p,4
fits perfectly fine on a core2.

However, since we try and schedule 4 it means the 0 event must have
succeeded!  Therefore the 4 event must have failed, its failure will
have put group_sched_in() into the fail path, which will call:

	event_sched_out()
	  event->pmu->del()

on 0 and the BP event.

Now x86_pmu_del() will reduce n_events; but it will not reduce n_added;
giving what we see below:

 n_event = 2, n_added = 2, n_txn = 2

So the problem is that x86_pmu_del(), when called from a
group_sched_in() that fails (for whatever reason), and without x86_pmu
TXN support (because the leader is !x86_pmu), will corrupt the n_added
state.
