In this case the tree's key heeds to be something trickier than just 
event->cpu. To avoid that complication group_list is introduced. BTW, 
addressing perf_event_tree_delete issue doesn't look like a big change now:

static void
perf_cpu_tree_delete(struct rb_root *tree, struct perf_event *event)
{
	struct perf_event *next;

	WARN_ON_ONCE(!tree || !event);

	list_del_init(&event->group_entry);

	if (!RB_EMPTY_NODE(&event->group_node)) {
		if (!list_empty(&event->group_list)) {
			next = list_first_entry(&event->group_list,
					struct perf_event, group_entry);
			list_replace_init(&event->group_list,
					&next->group_list);
			rb_replace_node(&event->group_node,
					&next->group_node, tree);
		} else {
			rb_erase(&event->group_node, tree);
		}
		RB_CLEAR_NODE(&event->group_node);
	}
}
