fsl_emb_pmu_del() unconditionally calls put_cpu_var(cpu_hw_events) at
the 'out:' label, but only calls the matching get_cpu_var() after the
'i < 0' early-return check. When event->hw.idx is negative the
function jumps to 'out:' without having taken get_cpu_var(), and the
trailing put_cpu_var() then issues an unmatched preempt_enable(),
underflowing preempt_count.
On a CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernel preempt_count would underflow and
eventually present as a 'scheduling while atomic' BUG.
Move put_cpu_var() to pair with get_cpu_var() so the percpu access is
correctly bracketed and the 'out:' label only handles perf_pmu_enable.
