kvm_pmu_handle_event() is globally visible, moving it around changes nothing.
As for using it in kvm_mark_pmc_is_quirky(), explicitly state the direct
motivation for moving kvm_pmu_request_counter_reprogram(), i.e. that it's being
hoisted above pmc_read_counter() for use in a future patch. Using abstract
language might sound pretty and dramatic, but it's really not helpful for reviewers.
