[PATCH v2 1/2] perf/core: out-of-line and export perf_allow_cpu/tracepoint()

[John Hubbard <jhubbard@nvidia.com>]

These helpers are static inline in <linux/perf_event.h> and reach
into sysctl_perf_event_paranoid and security_perf_event_open(),
neither of which is itself exported. The perf_allow_* trio is
therefore asymmetric: built-in callers can use any of the three, but
modular code can only call perf_allow_kernel().

Move both bodies into kernel/events/core.c next to perf_allow_kernel()
and export them with EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL, following the shape of
commit 5e9629d0ae97 ("drivers/perf: arm_spe: Use perf_allow_kernel()
for permissions"). Existing in-tree callers live in built-in arch and
tracing code, so the change is invisible to them.

Provide !CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS stubs that fall back to perfmon_capable(),
so the helpers stay callable when perf is compiled out.
