Subject: [PATCH v6 27/46] perf/x86: Use get/put_online_cpus_atomic() to
 prevent CPU offline

The CPU_DYING notifier modifies the per-cpu pointer pmu->box, and this can
race with functions such as uncore_pmu_to_box() and uncore_pci_remove() when
we remove stop_machine() from the CPU offline path. So protect them using
get/put_online_cpus_atomic().
