It's probably best to extend the comment above instead of adding a
comment for one of the states.

One of those return statements is too many; I'm thinking you meant to
only have the second.

Would it make sense to do something like:
new_master->hw.idx = event->hw.idx;
That should ensure x86_schedule_events() can do with the fast path;
after all, we're adding back the 'same' event. If we do this; this wants
a comment though.

For consistency that probably ought to be:
new_master->pmu->add(new_master, PERF_EF_START);
> + if (new_master->state == PERF_EVENT_STATE_INACTIVE)

If this really should not be perf_event_set_state() we need a comment
explaining why -- I think I see, but it's still early and I've not had
nearly enough tea to wake me up.

So the above event_sched_out(.remove_dup) is very inconsistent with the
below ctx_resched(.event_add_dup).

We basically need:
* perf_event_setup_dup() after add_event_to_ctx(), but before *sched_in()
- perf_install_in_context()
- perf_event_enable()
- inherit_event()
* perf_event_remove_dup() after *sched_out(), but before list_del_event()
- perf_remove_from_context()
- perf_event_disable()
AFAICT we can do that without changing *sched_out() and ctx_resched(),
with probably less lines changed over all.
