[PATCH 0/3] Use static_call for kvm_pmu_ops

[Like Xu]

Hi,

This is a successor to a previous patch set from Jason Baron. Let's convert
kvm_pmu_ops to use static_call. Shows good performance gains for
a typical perf use case [2] in the guest (results in patch 3/3).

[2] perf record -e branch-instructions -e branch-misses \
-e cache-misses -e cache-references -e cpu-cycles \
-e instructions ./workload

Thanks,

Like Xu (3):
  KVM: x86: Copy kvm_pmu_ops by value to eliminate layer of indirection
  KVM: x86: Introduce definitions to support static calls for
    kvm_pmu_ops
  KVM: x86: Use static calls to reduce kvm_pmu_ops overhead
