perf: Fix owner-list vs exit

Oleg noticed that a perf-fd keeping a reference on the creating task
leads to a few funny side effects.

There's two different aspects to this:

  - kernel based perf-events, these should not take out
    a reference on the creating task and appear on the task's
    event list since they're not bound to fds nor visible
    to userspace.

  - fork() and pthread_create(), these can lead to the creating
    task dying (and thus the task's event-list becomming useless)
    but keeping the list and ref alive until the event is closed.

Combined they lead to malfunction of the ptrace hw_tracepoints.

Cure this by not considering kernel based perf_events for the
owner-list and destroying the owner-list when the owner dies.
