The conversion of Intel PMU drivers into modules did not include reference
counting. The machine will crash when attempting to access deleted code
if an event from a module PMU is started and the module removed before the
event is destroyed.
i.e. this crashes the machine:
$ insmod intel-rapl-perf.ko
$ perf stat -e power/energy-cores/ -C 0 &
$ rmmod intel-rapl-perf.ko
Set THIS_MODULE to pmu->module in Intel module PMUs so that generic code
can handle reference counting and deny rmmod while an event still exists.
