perf/hw_breakpoint: Annotate tsk->perf_event_mutex vs ctx->mutex
Perf fuzzer gifted a lockdep splat:
perf_event_init_context()
mutex_lock(parent_ctx->mutex); (B)
inherit_task_group()
inherit_group()
inherit_event()
perf_event_alloc()
perf_try_init_event() := hw_breakpoint_event_init()
register_perf_hw_breakpoint()
mutex_lock(child->perf_event_mutex); (A)
Which is against the normal (documented) order. Now, this is a false
positive in that child is not published yet, but also inherited events
never end up on ->perf_event_list.
Annotate this one away.
