coresight: perf: Avoid unncessary CPU hotplug read lock

We hold the read lock on CPU hotplug to simply copy the
online mask, which is not really needed. And this can
cause a lockdep warning, like :

Since we have per-cpu array for the paths, we simply don't care about
the number of online CPUs. This patch gets rid of the
{get/put}_online_cpus().
