Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 37b502f121 arm/perf: Fix hotplug state machine conversion

Mark Rutland pointed out that this commit is incomplete:

  7d88eb695a ("arm/perf: Convert to hotplug state machine")

The problem is that:

 > __oprofile_cpu_pmu only contains one of these. So this conversion is not
 > correct.
 >
 > We were relying on the notifier list implicitly containing a list of

Introduce arm_pmu_list to correctly handle multiple PMUs in the system.
