The name and the comment would be a bit misleading.
(This sounds like a max number of events that are supported by ARMv8)

Perhaps 'MAX_EVENT_FILTER_BITS' would be more clear ?

(Looking at just this patch,) it appears 'PER_VM' in the name
might be rather misleading ?

Can you add a comment that explains the function ?
(especially for @pmu_event_filters and the return value ?)

What does this mean ? (the end of the valid entry in the array ?)
