I just ran into this again. It is not a clang specific issue, it
reproduces quite easily with arm64 defconfig minus CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS
and gcc 10.3.0:

arch/arm64/kvm/perf.c: In function 'kvm_perf_init':
arch/arm64/kvm/perf.c:58:36: error: implicit declaration of function
'perf_num_counters'; did you mean 'dec_mm_counter'?
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   58 |  if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARM_PMU) && perf_num_counters() > 0)
      |                                    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      |                                    dec_mm_counter
cc1: some warnings being treated as errors

I am not sure what the cleanest solution would be for providing a static
inline version of perf_num_counters() would be, as only arm64 actually
uses it (sh and s390 define it but it does not appear to be used) but it
is only available through CONFIG_ARM_PMU instead of just
CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS like the other two architectures mentioned above.

Cheers,
Nathan
