Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86/pmu: Don't expose guest LBR if the LBR_SELECT is shared per physical core

From: Like Xu <likexu@...cent.com>

According to Intel SDM, the Last Branch Record Filtering Select Register
(R/W) is defined as shared per physical core rather than per logical core
on some older Intel platforms: Silvermont, Airmont, Goldmont and Nehalem.

To avoid LBR attacks or accidental data leakage, on these specific
platforms, KVM should not expose guest LBR capability even if HT is
disabled on the host, considering that the HT state can be dynamically
changed, yet the KVM capabilities are initialized at module initialisation.

Fixes: be635e34c284 ("KVM: vmx/pmu: Expose LBR_FMT in the MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES")
