[PATCH 6/7] drm/i915/pmu: Lazy unregister

[Lucas De Marchi <lucas.demarchi@intel.com>]

Instead of calling perf_pmu_unregister() when unbinding, defer that to
the destruction of i915 object. Since perf itself holds a reference in
the event, this only happens when all events are gone, which guarantees
i915 is not unregistering the pmu with live events.

Previously, running the following sequence would crash the system after
~2 tries:

	1) bind device to i915
	2) wait events to show up on sysfs
	3) start perf  stat -I 1000 -e i915/rcs0-busy/
	4) unbind driver
	5) kill perf

Most of the time this crashes in perf_pmu_disable() while accessing the
percpu pmu_disable_count. This happens because perf_pmu_unregister()
destroys it with free_percpu(pmu->pmu_disable_count).

With a lazy unbind, the pmu is only unregistered after (5) as opposed to
after (4). The downside is that if a new bind operation is attempted for
the same device/driver without killing the perf process, i915 will fail
to register the pmu (but still load successfully). This seems better
than completely crashing the system.
