Shouldn't a standardized layout of the GIC frames go with the rest of
the GIC stuff?

!vpmu_vm would be the normal way to test if a pointer is NULL.

What? man calloc would tell you that the returned object is already
zero-initalized.

I extremely dislike that the VM is semi-configured by this helper.
You're still expecting the caller to actually install the exception
handler.

Not your code, but this assertion is meaningless. KVM does not advertise
an IMP_DEF PMU to guests.

Not your code, but these should be converted to kvm_device_attr_set()
calls.

Overall I'm somewhat tepid on the idea of the library being so
coarse-grained. It is usually more helpful to expose finer-grained
controls, like a helper that initializes the vPMU state for a
preexisting VM. That way the PMU code can more easily be composed with
other helpers in different tests.
