perf_counter: Put whole group on when enabling group leader

Browse source

Currently, if you have a group where the leader is disabled and there
are siblings that are enabled, and then you enable the leader, we only
put the leader on the PMU, and not its enabled siblings.  This is
incorrect, since the enabled group members should be all on or all off
at any given point.

This fixes it by adding a call to group_sched_in in
__perf_counter_enable in the case where we're enabling a group leader.

To avoid the need for a forward declaration this also moves
group_sched_in up before __perf_counter_enable.  The actual content of
group_sched_in is unchanged by this patch.
