[RFC][PATCH 07/11] perf: Reduce perf_disable() usage

[Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>]

[-- Attachment #1: perf-less-disable-1.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 11232 bytes --]

Since the current perf_disable() usage is only an optimization, remove
it for now. This eases the removal of the weak hw_perf_enable
interface.
