The MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES is a read only MSR that enumerates the
existence of performance monitoring features and KVM would always set
F(PDCM) since worst case it will just be zero.
The bits [0, 5] of MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES tells about the LBR format
of the branch record addresses stored in the LBR stack. User space could
enable guest LBR by setting the exactly supported LBR format bits for this
msr_based_feature.
