I think something like the below ought to work. Compile tested only.

On offline it basically does perf_event_disable() for all CPU context
events, and then adds HOTPLUG_OFFSET (-32) to arrive at: OFF +
HOTPLUG_OFFSET = -33.

That's smaller than ERROR and thus perf_event_enable() no-ops on events
for offline CPUs (maybe we should try and plumb an error return for
IOC_ENABLE).

On online we subtract the HOTPLUG_OFFSET again and the event becomes a
regular OFF, after which perf_event_enable() should work again.
