Subject: [PATCH v3 05/17] KVM: x86/pmu: Reprogram guest PEBS event to emulate guest PEBS counter

When a guest counter is configured as a PEBS counter through
IA32_PEBS_ENABLE, a guest PEBS event will be reprogrammed by
configuring a non-zero precision level in the perf_event_attr.

The guest PEBS overflow PMI bit would be set in the guest
GLOBAL_STATUS MSR when PEBS facility generates a PEBS
overflow PMI based on guest IA32_DS_AREA MSR.

The attr.precise_ip would be adjusted to a special precision
level when the new PEBS-PDIR feature is supported later which
would affect the host counters scheduling.

The guest PEBS event would not be reused for non-PEBS
guest event even with the same guest counter index.
