Subject: [PATCH 5.10 259/593] KVM: arm64: Dont zero the cycle count register when PMCR_EL0.P is set

From: Alexandru Elisei <alexandru.elisei@....com>

[ Upstream commit 2a71fabf6a1bc9162a84e18d6ab991230ca4d588 ]

According to ARM DDI 0487G.a, page D13-3895, setting the PMCR_EL0.P bit to
1 has the following effect:

"Reset all event counters accessible in the current Exception level, not
including PMCCNTR_EL0, to zero."

Similar behaviour is described for AArch32 on page G8-7022. Make it so.
