The mask value of fixed counter control register should be dynamic
adjusted with the number of fixed counters. This patch introduces a
variable that includes the reserved bits of fixed counter control
registers. This is needed for later Ice Lake fixed counter changes.

Don't we already have hardware with more than 3 fixed counters?

Yes, so we update this mask based on the value of pmu->nr_arch_fixed_counters:

+    for (i = 0; i < pmu->nr_arch_fixed_counters; i++)
+        pmu->fixed_ctr_ctrl_mask &= ~(0xbull << (i * 4));

I assume this comment will not result in any code changes for this patch.
