$ jq -r --arg FEAT "FEAT_PMUv3_ICNTR" -f ./dumpfeat.jq Features.json
(FEAT_PMUv3_ICNTR --> v8Ap8)
(FEAT_PMUv3_ICNTR --> FEAT_PMUv3p9)
((FEAT_PMUv3_ICNTR && FEAT_AA64EL2) --> FEAT_FGT2)

If you have FEAT_PMUv3_ICNTR, then you have FEAT_FGT2. If you have
FEAT_FGT2, then we already trap and UNDEF PMICNTR_EL0 without any
further handling since 4bc0fe0898406 ("KVM: arm64: Add sanitisation
for FEAT_FGT2 registers").

Same thing.

So none of this is actually required.
