Not just limit, but upgrade too! (force?)
This looks safe because ARMV8_PMU_EVTYPE_EVENT always includes the extra bits this added,
and the register is always trapped.


The PMU version is also readable via ID_DFR0_EL1.PerfMon, should that be sanitised to be
the same?
(I don't think we've hidden an aarch64 feature that also existed in aarch32 before).


Regardless:
