If two tasks were both forked from the same parent task, Events in their perf task contexts can be the same. Perf core may leave out switching the perf event contexts.
Previous patch inroduces pmu specific data. The data is for saving the LBR stack, it is task specific. So we need to switch the data even when context switch is optimized out.
