[PATCH v7 0/3] KVM: x86: Provide per VM capability for disabling PMU virtualization

[David Dunn <daviddunn@google.com>]

Allow usermode to disable PMU virtualization on individual x86 VMs.
When disabled, the PMU is not accessible from the guest.

v6: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220209172945.1495014-1-daviddunn@google.com/

v6 -> v7
 * Incorporating feedback from Sean.
 * Rephrased commit messages (borrowed from Sean).
 * Added locking around kvm->created_vcpus access.
 * Moved KVM_CAP_PMU_VALID_MASK out of user ABI headers.
 * Changed comments on vm_create_without_vcpus.
 * Directly check results in selftest TEST_ASSERT statements.

v5 -> v6
 * resolve minor conflicts that were queued after v5 was reviewed.

v4 -> v5
 * Remove automatic CPUID adjustment when PMU disabled.
 * Update documentation and changelog to reflect above.
 * Update documentation to document arg[0] and return values.
