Arch LBR MSRs are xsave-supported, but they're operated as "independent"

the MSRs are saved/restored with PMU specific code instead of generic
kernel fpu XSAVES/XRSTORS operation.

During thread/process context switch, Linux perf still uses the XSAVES/XRSTORS operation to save/restore the LBR MSRs.

Linux perf only manipulates these MSRs only when the xsave feature is not supported.

Thanks,

When vcpu guest/host fpu state swap
happens, Arch LBR MSRs won't be touched so access them directly.
