The number of Arch LBR entries available is determined by the value
in host MSR_ARCH_LBR_DEPTH.DEPTH. The supported LBR depth values are
enumerated in CPUID.(EAX=01CH, ECX=0):EAX[7:0]. For each bit "n" set
in this field, the MSR_ARCH_LBR_DEPTH.DEPTH value of "8*(n+1)" is
supported.
On a guest write to MSR_ARCH_LBR_DEPTH, all LBR entries are reset to 0.
KVM writes guest requested value to the native ARCH_LBR_DEPTH MSR
(this is safe because the two values will be the same) when the Arch LBR
records MSRs are pass-through to the guest.

I really don't understand why the sanity check of the
guest lbr depth needs to read the host's cpuid entry and it's pretty slow.
This is to address a concern from Jim:
"Does this imply that, when restoring a vCPU, KVM_SET_CPUID2 must be called before
KVM_SET_MSRS, so that arch_lbr_depth_is_valid() knows what to do? Is this documented
anywhere?"
What will KVM do if the #GP behaviour of msr does not match the CPUID it is set to?
For user space host_initiated path, we may check it with the host one but
for the guest emulation, it should rely on guest cpuid, just like what we do in
the intel_is_valid_msr().
anyway, setting depth MSR shouldn't be hot path.
Not at all, it will be used to reset LBR entries
and it's as frequent as task switching.
KVM has reported the maximum host LBR depth as the only supported value.

Resetting the host msr here is dangerous,
what if the guest LBR event doesn't exist or isn't scheduled on?
Hmm, should be vmcs_write to the DEPTH field, thanks for pointing this
out!
Seriously?
