perf_counter: Provide functions for locking and pinning the context for a task 

This abstracts out the code for locking the context associated
with a task.  Because the context might get transferred from
one task to another concurrently, we have to check after
locking the context that it is still the right context for the
task and retry if not.  This was open-coded in
find_get_context() and perf_counter_init_task().

This adds a further function for pinning the context for a
task, i.e. marking it so it can't be transferred to another
task.  This adds a 'pin_count' field to struct
perf_counter_context to indicate that a context is pinned,
instead of the previous method of setting the parent_gen count
to all 1s.  Pinning the context with a pin_count is easier to
undo and doesn't require saving the parent_gen value.  This
also adds a perf_unpin_context() to undo the effect of
perf_pin_task_context() and changes perf_counter_init_task to
use it.
