perf events: Allow per-task-per-cpu counters

In order to allow for per-task-per-cpu counters, useful for
scalability when profiling task hierarchies, we allow installing
events with event->cpu != -1 in task contexts.

__perf_event_sched_in() already skips events where ->cpu
mis-matches the current cpu, fix up __perf_install_in_context()
and __perf_event_enable() to also respect this filter.

This does lead to vary hard to interpret enabled/running times
for such counters, but I don't see a simple solution for that.
