perf/hw_breakpoint: Annotate tsk->perf_event_mutex vs ctx->mutex

Perf fuzzer gifted a lockdep splat:

  perf_event_init_context()
    mutex_lock(parent_ctx->mutex);			(B)
    inherit_task_group()
      inherit_group()
        inherit_event()
          perf_event_alloc()
            perf_try_init_event() := hw_breakpoint_event_init()
              register_perf_hw_breakpoint()
                mutex_lock(child->perf_event_mutex);	(A)

Which is against the normal (documented) order. Now, this is a false
positive in that child is not published yet, but also inherited events
never end up on ->perf_event_list.

Annotate this one away.
