Read MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES triggers #GP when pmu is disabled
by enable_pmu=0 in KVM. Let's check whether pmu is available before
issue msr reading to avoid the #GP. Also check PDCM bit before read
the MSR.

Don't open code cpuid(), add and use X86_FEATURE_PDCM:

   #define	X86_FEATURE_PDCM		(CPUID(0x1, 0, ECX, 15))

	if (!this_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PDCM))

Oops, this is more x86 style code, thank you!

If your going to bother printing a message, please make it useful.  Every time I
read PMU code I have to reread the kernel's cpufeatures.h to remember what PDCM
stands for.

		printf("Perf/Debug Capabilities MSR isn't supported\n");
Exactly, I'll bear it in mind :-)

Similar complaint,

Sure.
