perf: Optimize perf_cgroup_switch()

Namhyung reported that bd2756811766 ("perf: Rewrite core context handling")
regresses context switch overhead when perf-cgroup is in use together
with 'slow' PMUs like uncore.

Specifically, perf_cgroup_switch()'s perf_ctx_disable() /
ctx_sched_out() etc.. all iterate the full list of active PMUs for
that CPU, even if they don't have cgroup events.

Previously there was cgrp_cpuctx_list which linked the relevant PMUs
together, but that got lost in the rework. Instead of re-instruducing
a similar list, let the perf_event_pmu_context iteration skip those
that do not have cgroup events. This avoids growing multiple versions
of the perf_event_pmu_context iteration.

Measured performance (on a slightly different patch):

Before)

  $ taskset -c 0 ./perf bench sched pipe -l 10000 -G AAA,BBB
  # Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
  # Executed 10000 pipe operations between two processes

       Total time: 0.901 [sec]

        90.128700 usecs/op
            11095 ops/sec

After)

  $ taskset -c 0 ./perf bench sched pipe -l 10000 -G AAA,BBB
  # Running 'sched/pipe' benchmark:
  # Executed 10000 pipe operations between two processes

       Total time: 0.065 [sec]

         6.560100 usecs/op
           152436 ops/sec
