There are some KVM related pmuver not-implemented check as well, should they be
replaced in this patch or rather in a separate patch ?

arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c:      if (pmu->pmuver == 0 || pmu->pmuver == ID_AA64DFR0_EL1_PMUVer_IMP_DEF)
arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c:              if (pmu->pmuver == 0 ||
arch/arm64/kvm/pmu-emul.c:                  pmu->pmuver == ID_AA64DFR0_EL1_PMUVer_IMP_DEF)
