The current pmc->eventsel for fixed counter is underutilised. The
pmc->eventsel can be setup for all known available fixed counters
since we have mapping between fixed pmc index and
the intel_arch_events array.
Either gp or fixed counter, it will simplify the later checks for
consistency between eventsel and perf_hw_id.

How do we know that i < size? For example, Ice Lake supports 4
fixed counters, but fixed_pmc_events only has three entries.
With the help of macro MAX_FIXED_COUNTERS,
the fourth or more fixed counter is currently not supported in KVM.
If the user space sets a super set of CPUID supported by KVM,
any pmu emulation failure is to be expected, right ?
Waiting for more comments from you on this patch set.
