perf/cgroup: Fix perf cgroup hierarchy support

Browse source

The following commit:

  864c2357ca ("perf/core: Do not set cpuctx->cgrp for unscheduled cgroups")

made list_update_cgroup_event() skip setting cpuctx->cgrp if no cgroup event
targets %current's cgroup.

This breaks perf_event's hierarchical support because events which target one
of the ancestors get ignored.

Fix it by using cgroup_is_descendant() test instead of equality.
