This series fixes several recently discovered sampling issues:
- a warning about a missing ctx->mutex hold during LBR counter event
  initialization.
- PEBS sampling failures after CPU offline/online for both legacy PEBS
  and arch-PEBS.
- invalid counts reported by non-PEBS ACR events in SAMPLE_READ mode.
- stale or incorrect counts reported by PEBS events without counter
  snapshot support.
- incorrect event counts are seen when multiple PEBS events are active
  in a group.

It also relaxes the slots-event restriction for topdown event groups:
the slots event no longer has to be the group leader, which makes
sampling for groups containing topdown metric events more flexible.

Patch layout:
- patch 01: fix the warning triggered by for_each_sibling_event() while
  iterating LBR counter events.
- patches 02-04: fix PEBS sampling failures after CPU offline/online for
  both legacy PEBS and arch-PEBS.
- patches 05-06: fix minor PEBS handler issues.
- patch 07: fix invalid counts reported by non-PEBS ACR events in
  SAMPLE_READ mode.
- patch 08: fix stale counts reported by PEBS events without counter
  snapshot support.
- patches 09-11: refactor PEBS handlers to remove duplicated code and
  fix incorrect counts when multiple PEBS events are active in group.
- patch 12: make ACR static_call updates architectural to avoid
  model-specific updates on every platform
- patch 13: add is_x86_event() checks before testing for
  slots/topdown/mem-loads events
- patches 14-15: allow a slots event to be a non-group leader, making 
  sampling for groups containing topdown metric events more flexible.
