KVM: x86/pmu: Zero out PMU metadata on AMD if PMU is disabled
[ Upstream commit f933b88 ] Move the purging of common PMU metadata from intel_pmu_refresh() to kvm_pmu_refresh(), and invoke the vendor refresh() hook if and only if the VM is supposed to have a vPMU. KVM already denies access to the PMU based on kvm->arch.enable_pmu, as get_gp_pmc_amd() returns NULL for all PMCs in that case, i.e. KVM already violates AMD's architecture by not virtualizing a PMU (kernels have long since learned to not panic when the PMU is unavailable). But configuring the PMU as if it were enabled causes unwanted side effects, e.g. calls to kvm_pmu_trigger_event() waste an absurd number of cycles due to the all_valid_pmc_idx bitmap being non-zero.
