KVM: selftests: Test Intel PMU architectural events on gp counters
Add test cases to verify that Intel's Architectural PMU events work as
expected when they are available according to guest CPUID. Iterate over a
range of sane PMU versions, with and without full-width writes enabled,
and over interesting combinations of lengths/masks for the bit vector that
enumerates unavailable events.
Test up to vPMU version 5, i.e. the current architectural max. KVM only
officially supports up to version 2, but the behavior of the counters is
backwards compatible, i.e. KVM shouldn't do something completely different
for a higher, architecturally-defined vPMU version. Verify KVM behavior
against the effective vPMU version, e.g. advertising vPMU 5 when KVM only
supports vPMU 2 shouldn't magically unlock vPMU 5 features.
According to Intel SDM, the number of architectural events is reported
through CPUID.0AH:EAX[31:24] and the architectural event x is supported
if EBX[x]=0 && EAX[31:24]>x.
Handcode the entirety of the measured section so that the test can
precisely assert on the number of instructions and branches retired.
