    perf: Optimize perf_cgroup_switch()
    
    [ Upstream commit f06cc667f79909e9175460b167c277b7c64d3df0 ]
    
    Namhyung reported that bd2756811766 ("perf: Rewrite core context handling")
    regresses context switch overhead when perf-cgroup is in use together
    with 'slow' PMUs like uncore.
    
    Specifically, perf_cgroup_switch()'s perf_ctx_disable() /
    ctx_sched_out() etc.. all iterate the full list of active PMUs for
    that CPU, even if they don't have cgroup events.
    
    Previously there was cgrp_cpuctx_list which linked the relevant PMUs
    together, but that got lost in the rework. Instead of re-instruducing
    a similar list, let the perf_event_pmu_context iteration skip those
    that do not have cgroup events. This avoids growing multiple versions
    of the perf_event_pmu_context iteration.
    
    Measured performance (on a slightly different patch):
    
    Before)
    
      $ taskset -c 0 ./perf bench sched pipe -l 10000 -G AAA,BBB
      # Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
      # Executed 10000 pipe operations between two processes
    
           Total time: 0.901 [sec]
    
            90.128700 usecs/op
                11095 ops/sec
    
    After)
    
      $ taskset -c 0 ./perf bench sched pipe -l 10000 -G AAA,BBB
      # Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
      # Executed 10000 pipe operations between two processes
    
           Total time: 0.065 [sec]
    
             6.560100 usecs/op
               152436 ops/sec
