Where is the "writes ignored" behavior documented?  I can't find anything in the
APM that defines write behavior.

This _definitely_ needs a comment.  Hmm, and I would prefer to reverse these, i.e.

	case MSR_AMD64_PERF_CNTR_GLOBAL_CTL:
		data &= ~pmu->global_ctrl_mask;
		fallthrough;
	case MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL:
		if (!kvm_valid_perf_global_ctrl(pmu, data))
			return 1;

It's a bit arbitrary, but either Intel or AMD is going to end up with extra code,
and IMO skipping a validity check is more alarming than skipping clearing of
reserved bits, i.e. will look like a bug to future readers.

Here too.  Argh, the APM doesn't actually define what happens on reserved bits,
it just says "WO".  I vote to be conservative and ignore writes to reserved bits.
And then we can have one comment for the whole block, e.g.

	/*
	 * Note, AMD ignores writes to read-only PMU MSRs/bits, whereas Intel
	 * generates #GP on attempts to write reserved bits or RO MSRs.
	 */
	switch (msr) {
	case MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_STATUS:
		if (!msr_info->host_initiated)
			return 1; /* RO MSR */
		fallthrough;
	case MSR_AMD64_PERF_CNTR_GLOBAL_STATUS:
		if (!msr_info->host_initiated)
			break;

		pmu->global_status = data;
		break;
	case MSR_AMD64_PERF_CNTR_GLOBAL_CTL:
		data &= ~pmu->global_ctrl_mask;
		fallthrough;
	case MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL:
		if (!kvm_valid_perf_global_ctrl(pmu, data))
			return 1;

		if (pmu->global_ctrl != data) {
			diff = pmu->global_ctrl ^ data;
			pmu->global_ctrl = data;
			reprogram_counters(pmu, diff);
		}
		break;
	case MSR_AMD64_PERF_CNTR_GLOBAL_STATUS_CLR:
		fallthrough;
	case MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_OVF_CTRL:
		if (data & pmu->global_ovf_ctrl_mask)
			return 1;

		if (!msr_info->host_initiated)
			pmu->global_status &= ~data;
		break;
	default:
		kvm_pmu_mark_pmc_in_use(vcpu, msr_info->index);
		return static_call(kvm_x86_pmu_set_msr)(vcpu, msr_info);
	}

	return 0;

No need for the intermediate "entry".

Oof, at first glance this looks like a potential null-pointer deref bug.  I
believe we can do

		/*
		 * Note, PERFMON_V2 is also in 0x80000022.0x0, i.e. the guest
		 * CPUID entry is guaranteed to be non-NULL.
		 */
		BUILD_BUG_ON(x86_feature_cpuid(X86_FEATURE_PERFMON_V2).function != 0x80000022 ||
			     x86_feature_cpuid(X86_FEATURE_PERFMON_V2).index != 0x80000022);
		ebx.full = kvm_find_cpuid_entry_index(vcpu, 0x80000022, 0)->ebx;

This needs to be sanitized, no?  E.g. if KVM only has access to 4 counters, but
userspace sets X86_FEATURE_PERFCTR_CORE anyways.  Hrm, unless I'm missing something,
that's a pre-existing bug.

If I'm right, can you add a patch to cap nr_arch_gp_counters at
kvm_pmu_cap.num_counters_gp in the common flow, i.e. after this if-else block?
Then there is no change needed in this patch, e.g. we'll naturally end up with:

	union cpuid_0x80000022_ebx ebx;

	pmu->version = 1;
	if (guest_cpuid_has(vcpu, X86_FEATURE_PERFMON_V2)) {
		pmu->version = 2;
		/*                                                              
                 * Note, PERFMON_V2 is also in 0x80000022.0x0, i.e. the guest   
                 * CPUID entry is guaranteed to be non-NULL.                    
                 */                                                             
                BUILD_BUG_ON(x86_feature_cpuid(X86_FEATURE_PERFMON_V2).function != 0x80000022 ||
                             x86_feature_cpuid(X86_FEATURE_PERFMON_V2).index);
		ebx.full = kvm_find_cpuid_entry_index(vcpu, 0x80000022, 0)->ebx;
		pmu->nr_arch_gp_counters = ebx.split.num_core_pmc;
	} else if (guest_cpuid_has(vcpu, X86_FEATURE_PERFCTR_CORE)) {
		pmu->nr_arch_gp_counters = AMD64_NUM_COUNTERS_CORE;
	} else {
		pmu->nr_arch_gp_counters = AMD64_NUM_COUNTERS;
	}

	pmu->nr_arch_gp_counters = min_t(unsigned int,
					 pmu->nr_arch_gp_counters,
				       	 kvm_pmu_cap.num_counters_gp);
