Phrase this as a command so that it's crystal clear that this is what the patch
does, as opposed to what the patch _can_ do.

Helper please.

Should be a helper to use from an earlier patch.

Hmm, looking forward, maybe have an upper level helper?  E.g.

  void pmu_clear_global_status_safe(void)
  {
	if (!exists)
		return

	wrmsr(...);
  }

Ignore this suggestion if these checks go away in the future.

Helper.  Curly braces aren't necessary.

Can you opportunistically provide a better message than "status"?

Helper, no curly braces.  Ah, IIRC, kernel perf prefers curly braces if the code
spans multiple lines.  KVM and KUT does not.

Helper?  E.g. if this is a "has architectural PMU".
