When using adaptive PEBS with LBR entries, verify that the LBR entries are
all '0'. If KVM fails to context switch LBRs, e.g. when the guest isn't
using LBRs, as is the case in the pmu_pebs test, then adaptive PEBS can be
used to read the *host* LBRs as the CPU doesn't enforce the VMX MSR bitmaps
when generating PEBS records, i.e. ignores KVM's interception of reads to
LBR MSRs.
This testcase is best exercised by simultaneously utilizing LBRs in the
host, e.g. by running "perf record -b -e instructions", so that there is
non-zero data in the LBR MSRs.
