[ Upstream commit 4ce54af8b33d3e21ca935fc1b89b58cbba956051 ]

Some hardware PMU drivers will override perf_event.cpu inside their
event_init callback. This causes a lockdep splat when initialized through
the kernel API:

 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 250 at kernel/events/core.c:2917 ctx_sched_out+0x78/0x208
 pc : ctx_sched_out+0x78/0x208
 Call trace:
  ctx_sched_out+0x78/0x208
  __perf_install_in_context+0x160/0x248
  remote_function+0x58/0x68
  generic_exec_single+0x100/0x180
  smp_call_function_single+0x174/0x1b8
  perf_install_in_context+0x178/0x188
  perf_event_create_kernel_counter+0x118/0x160

Fix this by calling perf_install_in_context with event->cpu, just like
perf_event_open
