Namhyung Kim 486ff5ad49 perf/core: Fix invalid wait context in ctx_sched_in()
Lockdep found a bug in the event scheduling when a pinned event was
failed and wakes up the threads in the ring buffer like below.

It seems it should not grab a wait-queue lock under perf-context lock.
Let's do it with irq_work.
