To facilitate the detection of x86 PMU structures in upcoming patches,
the is_x86_pmu() helper is introduced. Additionally, the is_x86_event()
helper has been refactored to utilize is_x86_pmu().
No function changes intended.

After introducing the RDPMC user disable feature, user-space RDPMC may
return 0 instead of the actual event count. This creates an inconsistency
with cap_user_rdpmc, where cap_user_rdpmc is set, but user-space RDPMC
only returns 0.
To accurately represent the user-space RDPMC capability, update
cap_user_rdpmc based on the RDPMC user disable state. If RDPMC user
disable is enabled, cap_user_rdpmc is set to false, allowing user-space
programs to fall back to the read() syscall to obtain the real event
count.
Since arch_perf_update_userpage() could be called for software events,
enhance x86_pmu_has_rdpmc_user_disable() to only check the x86 PMUs.

v2: Add is_x86_pmu() check before checking if rdpmc user disable feature
is supported.
