[PATCH V5 00/10] KVM: x86: Add AMD Guest PerfMonV2 PMU support

[Like Xu]

Starting with Zen4, core PMU on AMD platforms such as Genoa and
Ryzen-7000 will support PerfMonV2, and it is also compatible with
legacy PERFCTR_CORE behavior and MSR addresses.

If you don't have access to the hardware specification, the commits
d6d0c7f681fd..7685665c390d for host perf can also bring a quick
overview. Its main change is the addition of three MSR's equivalent
to Intel V2, namely global_ctrl, global_status, global_status_clear.

It is worth noting that this feature is very attractive for reducing the
overhead of PMU virtualization, since multiple MSR accesses to multiple
counters will be replaced by a single access to the global register,
plus more accuracy gain when multiple guest counters are used.

All related testcases are passed on a Genoa box.
Please feel free to run more tests, add more or share comments.

Patch 0001-0007 could be applied earlier, which may help reduce
the burden on industrious reviewers.

V4 -> V5 Changelog:
- Avoid pronouns in the changelogs and comments; (Sean)
- Drop the assumption that KVM can blindly set v2 without changes; (Sean)
- Grab host CPUID and clear here (instead of setting); (Sean)
- Clarification of behaviours from spec-defined and HW observations; (Sean)
- Drop the use of the intermediate "entry"; (Sean)
- Use BUILD_BUG_ON() to avoid potential null-pointer deref bug; (Sean)
- Add a patch to cap nr_arch_gp_counters in the common flow; (Sean)
- Add sanitize check for pmu->nr_arch_gp_counters; (Sean)
- Rewrite changelogs which doesn't depend on the shortlog; (Sean)
- State what the patch actually does, not "should do"; (Sean)
- Drop the useless multiple line comment; (Sean)
- Apply a better short log; (Sean)
- Drop the performance blurb; (Sean)
- Drop the "The", i.e. just "AMD PerfMonV2 defines ..."; (Sean)
- s/hanlders/handlers; (Sean)
- s/intel/Intel; (Sean)
- Drop useless message on pmc_is_globally_enabled(); (Sean)
- Tweak "return 1" to follow the patterns for other MSR helpers; (Sean)
- Add assumptions about reusing global_ovf_ctrl_mask; (Sean)
