[ Upstream commit 012669c740e6e2afa8bdb95394d06676f933dd2d ]

On HETEROGENEOUS hardware (ARM big.Little, Intel Alderlake etc.) each
CPU might have a different hardware PMU. Since each such PMU is
represented by a different struct pmu, but we only have a single HW
task context.

That means that the task context needs to switch PMU type when it
switches CPUs.

Not doing this means that ctx->pmu calls (pmu_{dis,en}able(),
{start,commit,cancel}_txn() etc.) are called against the wrong PMU and
things will go wobbly.
