[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 01/24] perf/core: Only copy-to-user after completely unlocking all locks, v3.

We inadvertently create a dependency on mmap_sem with a whole chain.

This breaks any user who wants to take a lock and call rcu_barrier(),
while also taking that lock inside mmap_sem:

Changes since v1:
- Use (*values)[n++] in perf_read_one().
Changes since v2:
- Centrally allocate values.
