perf: Disable monitoring on setuid processes for regular users
commit 2976b10f05bd7f6dab9f9e7524451ddfed656a89 upstream. There was a a bug in setup_new_exec(), whereby the test to disabled perf monitoring was not correct because the new credentials for the process were not yet committed and therefore the get_dumpable() test was never firing. The patch fixes the problem by moving the perf_event test until after the credentials are committed.
