perf: Fix EXIT event notification

The perf_event_task_ctx() function needs to be called with
preemption disabled, since it's checking for currently
scheduled cpu against event cpu.

We disable preemption for task related perf event context
if there's one defined, leaving up to the chance which cpu
it gets scheduled in.
