perf/x86/lbr: Remove cpuc->lbr_xsave allocation from atomic context

If the kernel is compiled with the CONFIG_LOCKDEP option, the conditional might_sleep_if() deep in kmem_cache_alloc() will generate the following trace, and potentially cause a deadlock when another LBR event is added: [] BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/sched/mm.h:196 [] Call Trace: [] kmem_cache_alloc+0x36/0x250 [] intel_pmu_lbr_add+0x152/0x170 [] x86_pmu_add+0x83/0xd0 Make it symmetric with the release_lbr_buffers() call and mirror the existing DS buffers.
