Perf was incorrectly counting any PMU overflow interrupt that occurred while a VCPU was loaded as a guest event even when the events were not truely guest events. This lead to much less accurate and useful perf recordings. See as an example the below reports of `perf record dirty_log_perf_test -m 2 -v 4` before and after the series on ARM64.
