perf/core: Fix perf_output_read_group()
Mark reported his arm64 perf fuzzer runs sometimes splat like: armv8pmu_read_counter+0x1e8/0x2d8 armpmu_event_update+0x8c/0x188 armpmu_read+0xc/0x18 perf_output_read+0x550/0x11e8 perf_event_read_event+0x1d0/0x248 perf_event_exit_task+0x468/0xbb8 do_exit+0x690/0x1310 do_group_exit+0xd0/0x2b0 get_signal+0x2e8/0x17a8 do_signal+0x144/0x4f8 do_notify_resume+0x148/0x1e8 work_pending+0x8/0x14 which asserts that we only call pmu::read() on ACTIVE events. The above callchain does: perf_event_exit_task() perf_event_exit_task_context() task_ctx_sched_out() // INACTIVE perf_event_exit_event() perf_event_set_state(EXIT) // EXIT sync_child_event() perf_event_read_event() perf_output_read() perf_output_read_group() leader->pmu->read() Which results in doing a pmu::read() on an !ACTIVE event. I _think_ this is 'new' since we added attr.inherit_stat, which added the perf_event_read_event() to the exit path, without that perf_event_read_output() would only trigger from samples and for @event to trigger a sample, it's leader _must_ be ACTIVE too. Still, adding this check makes it consistent with the @sub case for the siblings.
