Add a common helper for *internal* PMC lookups, and delete the ops hook
and Intel's implementation. Keep AMD's implementation, but rename it to
amd_pmu_get_pmc() to make it somewhat more obvious that it's suited for
both KVM-internal and guest-initiated lookups.
Because KVM tracks all counters in a single bitmap, getting a counter
when iterating over a bitmap, e.g. of all valid PMCs, requires a small
amount of math, that while simple, isn't super obvious and doesn't use the
same semantics as PMC lookups from RDPMC! Although AMD doesn't support
fixed counters, the common PMU code still behaves as if there a split, the
high half of which just happens to always be empty.
Opportunstically add a comment to explain both what is going on, and why
KVM uses a single bitmap, e.g. the boilerplate for iterating over separate
bitmaps could be done via macros, so it's not (just) about deduplicating
code.

Apply the pre-intercepts RDPMC validity check only to AMD, and rename all
relevant functions to make it as clear as possible that the check is not a
standard PMC index check. On Intel, the basic rule is that only invalid
opcodes and privilege/permission/mode checks have priority over VM-Exit,
i.e. RDPMC with an invalid index should VM-Exit, not #GP. While the SDM
doesn't explicitly call out RDPMC, it _does_ explicitly use RDMSR of a
non-existent MSR as an example where VM-Exit has priority over #GP, and
RDPMC is effectively just a variation of RDMSR.
Manually testing on various Intel CPUs confirms this behavior, and the
inverted priority was introduced for SVM compatibility, i.e. was not an
intentional change for Intel PMUs. On AMD, *all* exceptions on RDPMC have
priority over VM-Exit.
Check for a NULL kvm_pmu_ops.check_rdpmc_early instead of using a RET0
static call so as to provide a convenient location to document the
difference between Intel and AMD, and to again try to make it as obvious
as possible that the early check is a one-off thing, not a generic "is
this PMC valid?" helper.

Remove KVM's bogus restriction that the guest can't program an event whose
encoding matches an unsupported architectural event. The enumeration of
an architectural event only says that if a CPU supports an architectural
event, then the event can be programmed using the architectural encoding.
The enumeration does NOT say anything about the encoding when the CPU
doesn't report support the architectural event.
Preventing the guest from counting events whose encoding happens to match
an architectural event breaks existing functionality whenever Intel adds
an architectural encoding that was *ever* used for a CPU that doesn't
enumerate support for the architectural event, even if the encoding is for
the exact same event!
E.g. the architectural encoding for Top-Down Slots is 0x01a4. Broadwell
CPUs, which do not support the Top-Down Slots architectural event, 0x01a4
is a valid, model-specific event. Denying guest usage of 0x01a4 if/when
KVM adds support for Top-Down slots would break any Broadwell-based guest.

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.

Move the Intel PMU implementation of pmc_is_enabled() to common x86 code
as pmc_is_globally_enabled(), and drop AMD's implementation. AMD PMU
currently supports only v1, and thus not PERF_GLOBAL_CONTROL, thus the
semantics for AMD are unchanged. And when support for AMD PMU v2 comes
along, the common behavior will also Just Work.

All gp or fixed counters have been reprogrammed using PERF_TYPE_RAW,
which means that the table that maps perf_hw_id to event select values is
no longer useful, at least for AMD.
For Intel, the logic to check if the pmu event reported by Intel cpuid is
not available is still required, in which case pmc_perf_hw_id() could be
renamed to hw_event_is_unavail() and a bool value is returned to replace
the semantics of "PERF_COUNT_HW_MAX+1".

Use static calls to improve kvm_pmu_ops performance, following the same
pattern and naming scheme used by kvm-x86-ops.h.
Here are the worst fenced_rdtsc() cycles numbers for the kvm_pmu_ops
functions that is most often called (up to 7 digits of calls) when running
a single perf test case in a guest on an ICX 2.70GHz host (mitigations=on):
| legacy | static call
------------------------------------------------------------
.pmc_idx_to_pmc | 1304840 | 994872 (+23%)
.pmc_is_enabled | 978670 | 1011750 (-3%)
.msr_idx_to_pmc | 47828 | 41690 (+12%)
