perf: Simplify child event tear-down
Currently perf_event_release_kernel() will iterate the child events and attempt tear-down. However, it removes them from the child_list using list_move(), notably skipping the state management done by perf_child_detach(). Crucially, it fails to clear PERF_ATTACH_CHILD, which opens the door for a concurrent perf_remove_from_context() to race. This way child_list management stays fully serialized using child_mutex.
