Reverse xmas tree.

It's kinda silly, but I think it makes sense to wait until after all of the
TEST_REQUIRE()s to create the VM+vCPU.

This cast shouldn't be necessary.  And if you're going to split lines...

	ASSERT_EQ(vcpu_get_msr(vcpu, MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES),
		  host_cap.capabilities & PMU_CAP_PEBS_ALL);

Though isn't that flawed?  E.g. will fail if MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES has
non-PEBS bits set.  I think what you want is something like:

	guest_perf_caps = vcpu_get_msr(vcpu, MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES);

	ASSERT_EQ(guest_perf_caps & PMU_CAP_PEBS_ALL,
		  host_cap.capabilities & PMU_CAP_PEBS_ALL);

Align things by their scope, i.e.

		if (val & (PMU_CAP_LBR_FMT | PMU_CAP_SMM_FREEZE
			   PMU_CAP_FW_WRITES | PMU_CAP_PERF_METRICS_AVAILABLE))

But even better would be to look for !PEBS, not some other values where it's not
clear they exhaustively cover all !PEBS value.  E.g. can't this be?

		if (val & ~PMU_CAP_PEBS_ALL)
			continue;

Just "KVM", not "the KVM".

I don't quite follow what you mean by "carrying".  Do you mean a non-zero value?
