    perf: Fix scaling vs. perf_event_enable_on_exec() · 7fce2509
    Peter Zijlstra authored
    The recent commit 3e349507 ("perf: Fix perf_enable_on_exec() event
    scheduling") caused this by moving task_ctx_sched_out() from before
    __perf_event_mask_enable() to after it.
    
    The overlooked consequence of that change is that task_ctx_sched_out()
    would update the ctx time fields, and now __perf_event_mask_enable()
    uses stale time.
    
    In order to fix this, explicitly stop our context's time before
    enabling the event(s).
