[RFC 2/2] perf/core: Invoke pmu::sched_task callback for per-cpu events

The commit 44fae179ce73 ("perf/core: Pull pmu::sched_task() into
perf_event_context_sched_out()") moved the pmu::sched_task callback to
be called for task event context. But it missed to call it for
per-cpu events to flush PMU internal buffers (i.e. for PEBS, ...).

This commit basically reverts the commit but keeps the optimization
for task events and only add missing calls for cpu events.

Fixes: 44fae179ce73 ("perf/core: Pull pmu::sched_task() into perf_event_context_sched_out()")
