Move the common (or at least "ignored") aspects of resetting the vPMU to
common x86 code, along with the stop/release helpers that are no used only
by the common pmu.c.
There is no need to manually handle fixed counters as all_valid_pmc_idx
tracks both fixed and general purpose counters, and resetting the vPMU is
far from a hot path, i.e. the extra bit of overhead to the PMC from the
index is a non-issue.
Zero fixed_ctr_ctrl in common code even though it's Intel specific.
Ensuring it's zero doesn't harm AMD/SVM in any way, and stopping the fixed
counters via all_valid_pmc_idx, but not clearing the associated control
bits, would be odd/confusing.
Make the .reset() hook optional as SVM no longer needs vendor specific
handling.

Stop all counters and release all perf events before refreshing the vPMU,
i.e. before reconfiguring the vPMU to respond to changes in the vCPU
model.
Clear need_cleanup in kvm_pmu_reset() as well so that KVM doesn't
prematurely stop counters, e.g. if KVM enters the guest and enables
counters before the vCPU is scheduled out.

Drop kvm_vcpu_reset()'s call to kvm_pmu_reset(), the call is performed
only for RESET, which is really just the same thing as vCPU creation,
and kvm_arch_vcpu_create() *just* called kvm_pmu_init(), i.e. there can't
possibly be any work to do.
Unlike Intel, AMD's amd_pmu_refresh() does fill all_valid_pmc_idx even if
guest CPUID is empty, but everything that is at all dynamic is guaranteed
to be '0'/NULL, e.g. it should be impossible for KVM to have already
created a perf event.

Remove code the unnecessarily clears event_count and need_cleanup in
kvm_pmu_init(), the entire kvm_pmu is zeroed just a few lines earlier.
Vendor code doesn't set event_count or need_cleanup during .init(), and
if either VMX or SVM did set those fields it would be a flagrant bug.

Update a PMC's sample period in pmc_write_counter() to deduplicate code
across all callers of pmc_write_counter(). Opportunistically move
pmc_write_counter() into pmc.c now that it's doing more work. WRMSR isn't
such a hot path that an extra CALL+RET pair will be problematic, and the
order of function definitions needs to be changed anyways, i.e. now is a
convenient time to eat the churn.

Explicitly track emulated counter events instead of using the common
counter value that's shared with the hardware counter owned by perf.
Bumping the common counter requires snapshotting the pre-increment value
in order to detect overflow from emulation, and the snapshot approach is
inherently flawed.
Snapshotting the previous counter at every increment assumes that there is
at most one emulated counter event per emulated instruction (or rather,
between checks for KVM_REQ_PMU). That's mostly holds true today because
KVM only emulates (branch) instructions retired, but the approach will
fall apart if KVM ever supports event types that don't have a 1:1
relationship with instructions.
And KVM already has a relevant bug, as handle_invalid_guest_state()
emulates multiple instructions without checking KVM_REQ_PMU, i.e. could
miss an overflow event due to clobbering pmc->prev_counter. Not checking
KVM_REQ_PMU is problematic in both cases, but at least with the emulated
counter approach, the resulting behavior is delayed overflow detection,
as opposed to completely lost detection.

As pointed by Mingwei, who _very_ patiently explained to me what is broken, the
snapshot used to detect overflow due to emulated_counter events needs to be taken
_after_ pausing the perf event, i.e. the count from the perf event needs to be
excluded. If overflow happens from pmc->counter => pmc->counter + pmc->perf_event,
then hardware (via perf) will detect overflow. I.e. KVM is only responsible for
detecting overflow solely due to emulated_counter. Include the count from the
perf event can lead to KVM generating multiple overflow events, where architecturally
only one should occur.
