Please don't make up random prefixes. This should really be "x86/pmu".

Thanks.

I'm hesitant to categorize about NMI handling into kvm/pmu scope. But you
have clear idea on it and it's fine to me. Please feel free to refine commit
message to fit your understanding and taste as you did.


From Documentation/process/maintainer-kvm-x86.rst:
