While that mutex should guard the elements, it doesn't guard against the use-after-free that's from list_for_each_entry_rcu(). __perf_event_exit_task() can actually free the event. And because list addition/deletion is guarded by both ctx->mutex and ctx->lock, holding ctx->mutex is sufficient for reading the list, so we don't actually need the rcu list iteration.
