Subject: [PATCH 3/3] KVM: x86/vPMU: Add lazy mechanism to release perf_event per vPMC

Currently, a host perf_event is created for a vPMC functionality emulation.
It’s unpredictable to determine if a disabled perf_event will be reused.
If they are disabled and are not reused for a considerable period of time,
those obsolete perf_events would increase host context switch overhead that
could have been avoided.

If the guest doesn't access (set_msr/get_msr/rdpmc) any of the vPMC's MSRs
during an entire vcpu sched time slice, and its independent enable bit of
the vPMC isn't set, we can predict that the guest has finished the use of
this vPMC, and then it's time to release the non-reused perf_event on the
first call of vcpu_enter_guest() since the vcpu gets next scheduled in.

This lazy mechanism delays the event release time to the beginning of the
next scheduled time slice if vPMC's MSRs aren't accessed during this time
slice. If guest comes back to use this vPMC in next time slice, a new perf
event would be re-created via perf_event_create_kernel_counter() as usual.
