Currently KVM only supports vPMU for Intel CPUs. This patchset enables
KVM vPMU support for AMD platform by creating a common PMU interface for
x86. By refractoring, PMU related MSR accesses from guest VMs are dispatched
to corresponding functions defined in arch specific files.

V4:
  * Change vPMU API function names to further clarify their functionality
  * Small fix for switch statement index in EVNTSELn and PERFCTRn (patch 4)
  * Add Tested-by and Reviewed-by

V3:
  * Rebase the code to the latest of KVM tree (queue branch);
  * Branch out the Intel specific code from pmu.c to pmu_intel.c, in order
    to reflect the change history more accurately;
  * Name the parameters/variables more consistently (use msr, idx, 
    pmc_idx) across files;
  * Fix issues (whitespaces, macro names, ...) based on Radim's V2 comments;
  * Fix the MSR_K7_PERFCTRn and MSR_K7_EVNTSELn access code (in patch 4);

V2:
  * Create a generic pmu.c file which is shared by Intel and AMD CPUs;
  * pmu.c code becomes part of kvm.ko module. Similarly pmu_intel.c and
    pmu_amd.c are linked to kvm-intel.ko and kvm-amd.ko respectively;
  * Re-define kvm_pmu_ops function pointers. Per Radim Krcmar's comments,
    a large portion of Intel vPMU code are now consolidated and moved to
    pmu.c;
  * Polish pmu_amd.c code to comply with new definition of kvm_pmu_ops;

V1:
  * Adopt the file layout suggested by Radim Krcmar
  * Link arch module with its specific PMU file

RFC:
  * Initial version for RFC
