tools/perf/builtin-kvm.c became x86-only with the following commit:

	commit bcf6edcd6fdb8965290f0b635a530fa3c6c212e1
	Author: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
	Date:   Mon Sep 17 16:31:15 2012 +0800
	Subject: perf kvm: Events analysis tool

when it added:

	+#include "../../arch/x86/include/asm/svm.h"
	+#include "../../arch/x86/include/asm/vmx.h"
	+#include "../../arch/x86/include/asm/kvm.h"

and my changing these to <asm/foo.h> doesn't matter because of this in the
same file:

	+struct exit_reasons_table vmx_exit_reasons[] = {
	+       VMX_EXIT_REASONS
	+};
	+
	+struct exit_reasons_table svm_exit_reasons[] = {
	+       SVM_EXIT_REASONS
	+};

which use macros only x86 defines.

Should the exported parts of these files be moved to asm-generic?
