Since we may not lose PEBS functionality for other x86 vendors on KVM
and we already have defined PERF_X86_EVENT_AUTO_RELOAD in the general
arch/x86/events/perf_event.h,
one of the ways to fix this issue is to
move the definition of perf_x86_pmu_unset_auto_reload()
to the end of arch/x86/events/core.c
instead of making it Intel specific
in previous patch "perf/x86: Expose a function to disable auto-reload."
Thanks,
Like Xu
