perf_counter: Fix a race on perf_counter_ctx

While extending perfcounters with BTS hw-tracing, Markus
Metzger managed to trigger this warning:

   [  995.557128] WARNING: at kernel/perf_counter.c:1191 __perf_counter_task_sched_out+0x48/0x6b()

triggers because commit
9f498cc5 (perf_counter: Full
task tracing) removed clearing of tsk->perf_counter_ctxp out
from under ctx->lock which introduced a race (against
perf_lock_task_context).

Move it back and deal with the exit notification by explicitly
passing along the former task context.
