Peter Zijlstra ba439eb53f perf/core: Fix event inheritance on fork()
commit e7cc4865f0 upstream.

While hunting for clues to a use-after-free, Oleg spotted that
perf_event_init_context() can loose an error value with the result
that fork() can succeed even though we did not fully inherit the perf
event context.
