Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86/pmu: Do not mask LVTPC when handling a PMI on AMD
 platforms

On AMD and Hygon platforms, the local APIC does not automatically set
the mask bit of the LVTPC register when handling a PMI and there is
no need to clear it in the kernel's PMI handler.

For guests, the mask bit is currently set by kvm_apic_local_deliver()
and unless it is cleared by the guest kernel's PMI handler, PMIs stop
arriving and break use-cases like sampling with perf record.

This does not affect non-PerfMonV2 guests because PMIs are handled in
the guest kernel by x86_pmu_handle_irq() which always clears the LVTPC
mask bit irrespective of the vendor.

Before:

  $ perf record -e cycles:u true
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.001 MB perf.data (1 samples) ]

After:

  $ perf record -e cycles:u true
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.002 MB perf.data (19 samples) ]
