Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] xen/pv: allow pmu msr accesses to cause GP

Today pmu_msr_read() and pmu_msr_write() fall back to the safe variants
of read/write MSR in case the MSR access isn't emulated via Xen. Allow
the caller to select the potentially faulting variant by passing NULL
for the error pointer.

Restructure the code to make it more readable.

V2:
- do some restructuring (Jan Beulich, Boris Ostrovsky)
