commit 145dfad998eac74abc59219d936e905766ba2d98 upstream.
Advertise LBR support to userspace via MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES if and
only if perf fully supports LBRs. Perf may disable LBRs (by zeroing the
number of LBRs) even on platforms the allegedly support LBRs, e.g. if
probing any LBR MSRs during setup fails.
Fixes: be635e34c284 ("KVM: vmx/pmu: Expose LBR_FMT in the MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES")
