perf: Push hotplug protection down to callers
There are various code pathes invoked from event init/release which take
the hotplug rwsem. That's either nesting in a region which holds the
hotplug rwsem already or creates reverse lock ordering.
Push the hotplug protection down to the core call sites and remove the
hotplug locking in the various init/destroy functions.
There is a subtle problem with the error exit path in sys_perf_event_open()
where fput() calls the release function from the hotplug protected
region. Solve this by manually releasing the event and preventing the
release function from doing so.
