perf/x86/BTS: Fix RCU usage
This splat reminds us: [ 8166.045595] [ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ] [ 8166.168972] [<ffffffff81127837>] lockdep_rcu_suspicious+0xe7/0x120 [ 8166.175966] [<ffffffff811e0bae>] perf_callchain+0x23e/0x250 [ 8166.182280] [<ffffffff811dda3d>] perf_prepare_sample+0x27d/0x350 [ 8166.189082] [<ffffffff8100f503>] intel_pmu_drain_bts_buffer+0x133/0x200 ... that as the core code does, one should hold rcu_read_lock() over that entire BTS event-output generation sequence as well.
