This doesn't make sense; perf_lock_task_context() isn't supposed to
return with ctx->lock held and therefore it should not still be held in
find_get_context() when calling put_ctx().
Now, the only put_ctx() call in find_get_context() is in the !ctx path
of the perf_lock_task_context() call, furthermore there is a
mutex_lock() - which implies a might_sleep() - before that, so we can't
still be holding a spinlock().
Most puzzled.
