That's good idea!

Thanks for the review.

Changes log:

v3.
track per-cpu pmu transaction state in cpu_hw_events (Peter Zijlstra)
move pmu definition back to const ("struct pmu" -> "const struct pmu")

v2.
pmu->flag should be per cpu (Stephane Eranian)

change definition of "const struct pmu" to "struct pmu" since it's not
read only now.

v1.
remove hw_perf_group_sched_in() based on Peter's idea.
