perf/aux: Fix pending disable flow when the AUX ring buffer overruns

Browse Source 
If an AUX event overruns, the event core layer intends to disable the
event by setting the 'pending_disable' flag. Unfortunately, the event
is not actually disabled afterwards.

In commit:

  ca6c21327c ("perf: Fix missing SIGTRAPs")

the 'pending_disable' flag was changed to a boolean. However, the
AUX event code was not updated accordingly. The flag ends up holding a
CPU number. If this number is zero, the flag is taken as false and the
IRQ work is never triggered.

Later, with commit:

  2b84def990 ("perf: Split __perf_pending_irq() out of perf_pending_irq()")

a new IRQ work 'pending_disable_irq' was introduced to handle event
disabling. The AUX event path was not updated to kick off the work queue.

To fix this bug, when an AUX ring buffer overrun is detected, call
perf_event_disable_inatomic() to initiate the pending disable flow.

Also update the outdated comment for setting the flag, to reflect the
boolean values (0 or 1).

Fixes: 2b84def990 ("perf: Split __perf_pending_irq() out of perf_pending_irq()")
Fixes: ca6c21327c ("perf: Fix missing SIGTRAPs")
