syzbot reported that the warning in perf_sigtrap() fires, saying that
the event's task does not match current:

On x86 this shouldn't happen, which has arch_irq_work_raise().

The test program sets up a perf event with sigtrap set to fire on the
'sched_wakeup' tracepoint, which fired in ttwu_do_wakeup().

This happened because the 'sched_wakeup' tracepoint also takes a task
argument passed on to perf_tp_event(), which is used to deliver the
event to that other task.

Since we cannot deliver synchronous signals to other tasks, skip an event if
perf_tp_event() is targeted at another task and perf_event_attr::sigtrap is
set, which will avoid ever entering perf_sigtrap() for such events.

Hmm, I made the mistake of sending this in the merge-window.
Any comments?

Thanks,
