Ian noted that commit 77de62ad3d ("perf/core: Fix refcount bug and
potential UAF in perf_mmap") would cause a deadlock due to
event->mmap_mutex recursion.
This happens because we're now calling perf_mmap_close() under
mmap_mutex, while that function itself can also take mmap_mutex.
Solve this by noting that perf_mmap_close() is far more complicated
than we need at this particular point, since it deals with scenarios
that cannot happen in this particular case.
Replace the call to perf_mmap_close() with a very narrow undo for the
case of first-exposure. If this is not the first mmap(), there is no
race and it is fine to drop the lock and call perf_mmap_close() to
handle to more complicated scenarios.
Note: move the rb->mmap_user (namespace) handling into the rb
init/free code such that it does not complicate the mmap handling.
