perf: Simplify and fix __perf_install_in_context()
Currently __perf_install_in_context() will try and schedule in the event irrespective of our event scheduling rules, that is, we try to schedule CPU-pinned, TASK-pinned, CPU-flexible, TASK-flexible, but when creating a new event we simply try and schedule it on top of whatever is already on the PMU, this can lead to errors for pinned events. Therefore, simplify things and simply schedule everything out, add the event to the corresponding context and schedule everything back in. This also nicely handles the case where with __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW the IPI can come right in the middle of schedule, before we managed to call perf_event_task_sched_in().
