It seems like perf_invalid_context does not support per task monitoring:
find_get_context():
ctxn = pmu->task_ctx_nr;
if (ctxn < 0)
goto errout;

Also, perf_hw_context is to be used only for core PMU, correct?

That leaves us with only perf_sw_context to be used. Not sure if a new
context needs to be implemented.
