perf: Collapse and fix event_function_call() users
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
There is one common bug left in all the event_function_call() users,
between loading ctx->task and getting to the remote_function(),
ctx->task can already have been changed.

Therefore we need to double check and retry if ctx->task != current.

Insert another trampoline specific to event_function_call() that
checks for this and further validates state. This also allows getting
rid of the active/inactive functions.
