More of a question for the existing code, what's the point of KVM_X86_OP_NULL?
AFAICT, it always resolves to KVM_X86_OP.  Unless there's some magic I'm missing,
I vote we remove KVM_X86_OP_NULL and then not introduce KVM_X86_PMU_OP_NULL.
And I'm pretty sure it's useless, e.g. get_cs_db_l_bits is defined with the NULL
variant, but it's never NULL and its calls aren't guarded with anything.  And if
KVM_X86_OP_NULL is intended to aid in documenting behavior, it's doing a pretty
miserable job of that :-)

I'll double down on my nVMX suggestion so that this export can be avoided.

As alluded to in patch 01, I'd prefer these go in kvm_ops_static_call_update()
to keep the static call magic somewhat contained.
