Subject: perf_counter: initialize the per-cpu context earlier
X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~13973^2~304
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0d905bca23aca5c86a10ee101bcd3b1abbd40b25;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git

perf_counter: initialize the per-cpu context earlier

percpu scheduling for perfcounters wants to take the context lock,
but that lock first needs to be initialized. Currently it is an
early_initcall() - but that is too late, the task tick runs much
sooner than that.

Call it explicitly from the scheduler init sequence instead.

[ Impact: fix access-before-init crash ]
