Subject: [PATCH] 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.
