I'd rather we not use templates for this problem. It bloats the kernel text
as well as the trap encoding space.

I have a patch in the nested PMU series that uses a single complex trap
ID to evaluate HPMN, and derives the index from ESR_EL2. I think it
could also be extended to the PMEVCNTSVR<n> range as well.

Also, keep in mind that the HPMN trap is annoying since it affects Host
EL0 in addition to 'guest' ELs.
