[PATCH V5 05/10] KVM: x86/pmu: Disable vPMU if the minimum num of counters isn't met

[Like Xu <like.xu.linux@gmail.com>]

From: Like Xu <likexu@tencent.com>

Disable PMU support when running on AMD and perf reports fewer than four
general purpose counters. All AMD PMUs must define at least four counters
due to AMD's legacy architecture hardcoding the number of counters
without providing a way to enumerate the number of counters to software,
e.g. from AMD's APM:

 The legacy architecture defines four performance counters (PerfCtrn)
 and corresponding event-select registers (PerfEvtSeln).

Virtualizing fewer than four counters can lead to guest instability as
software expects four counters to be available.
