KVM: arm64: Fix the issues when guest PMCCFILTR is configured KVM calls kvm_pmu_set_counter_event_type() when PMCCFILTR is configured. But this function can't deals with PMCCFILTR correctly because the evtCount bits of PMCCFILTR, which is reserved 0, conflits with the SW_INCR event type of other PMXEVTYPER<n> registers. To fix it, when eventsel == 0, this function shouldn't return immediately; instead it needs to check further if select_idx is ARMV8_PMU_CYCLE_IDX. Another issue is that KVM shouldn't copy the eventsel bits of PMCCFILTER blindly to attr.config. Instead it ought to convert the request to the "cpu cycle" event type (i.e. 0x11). To support this patch and to prevent duplicated definitions, a limited set of ARMv8 perf event types were relocated from perf_event.c to asm/perf_event.h.
