This series creates a new PMU scheme on ARM, a partitioned PMU that
allows reserving a subset of counters for more direct guest access,
significantly reducing overhead. More details, including performance
benchmarks, can be read in the v1 cover letter linked below.

v4:

* Apply Mark Brown's non-UNDEF FGT control commit to the PMU FGT
  controls and calculate those controls with the others in
  kvm_calculate_traps()

* Introduce lazy context swaps for guests that only turns on for
  guests that have enabled partitioning and accessed PMU registers.

* Rename pmu-part.c to pmu-direct.c because future features might
  achieve direct PMU access without partitioning.

* Better explain certain commits, such as why the untrapped registers
  are safe to untrap.

* Reduce the PMU include cleanup down to only what is still necessary
  and explain why.
