Now that KVM disallows changing feature MSRs, i.e. PERF_CAPABILITIES, after running a vCPU, WARN and bug the VM if the PMU is refreshed after the vCPU has run. Note, KVM has disallowed CPUID updates after running a vCPU since commit feb627e8d6f6 ("KVM: x86: Forbid KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} after KVM_RUN"), i.e. PERF_CAPABILITIES was the only remaining way to trigger a PMU refresh after KVM_RUN.
