Song reports that installing cgroup events is broken since:
db0503e4f675 ("perf/core: Optimize perf_install_in_event()")
The problem being that cgroup events try to track cpuctx->cgrp even
for disabled events, which is pointless and actively harmful since the
above commit. Rework the code to have explicit enable/disable hooks
for cgroup events, such that we can limit cgroup tracking to active
events.
More specifically, since the above commit disabled events are no
longer added to their context from the 'right' CPU, and we can't
access things like the current cgroup for a remote CPU.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
