perf: Fix scaling vs. perf_event_enable_on_exec()



The recent commit 3e349507 ("perf: Fix perf_enable_on_exec() event
scheduling") caused this by moving task_ctx_sched_out() from before
__perf_event_mask_enable() to after it.

The overlooked consequence of that change is that task_ctx_sched_out()
would update the ctx time fields, and now __perf_event_mask_enable()
uses stale time.

In order to fix this, explicitly stop our context's time before
enabling the event(s).
