perf: Avoid RCU vs preemption assumptions

The per-pmu per-cpu context patch converted things from
get_cpu_var() to this_cpu_ptr(), but that only works if
rcu_read_lock() actually disables preemption, and since
there is no such guarantee, we need to fix that.

Use the newly introduced {get,put}_cpu_ptr().
