Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86/pmu: Fix reserved bits for AMD PerfEvtSeln register

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

If we run the following perf command in an AMD Milan guest:

  perf stat \
  -e cpu/event=0x1d0/ \
  -e cpu/event=0x1c7/ \
  -e cpu/umask=0x1f,event=0x18e/ \
  -e cpu/umask=0x7,event=0x18e/ \
  -e cpu/umask=0x18,event=0x18e/ \
  ./workload

dmesg will report a #GP warning from an unchecked MSR access
error on MSR_F15H_PERF_CTLx.

This is because according to APM (Revision: 4.03) Figure 13-7,
the bits [35:32] of AMD PerfEvtSeln register is a part of the
event select encoding, which extends the EVENT_SELECT field
from 8 bits to 12 bits.

Opportunistically update pmu->reserved_bits for reserved bit 19.
