WAS: Bug fixes and cleanups related to KVM's handling of PERF_CAPABILITIES. Fix a bug where KVM incorrectly advertises PMU_CAP_LBR_FMT to userspace if perf has disabled LBRs, e.g. because probing one or more LBR MSRs during setup hit a #GP. The non-KVM patches remove unnecessary stubs and unreachable error paths, which allows for a cleaner fix for said bug. v3: - Drop patches for bug #1 (already merged). - Drop misguided "clean up the capability check" patch. [Like] v2: - https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220803192658.860033-1-seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx - Add patches to fix bug #2. [Like] - Add a patch to clean up the capability check. - Tweak the changelog for the PMU refresh bug fix to call out that KVM should disallow changing feature MSRs after KVM_RUN.
