Hmm, rather than have a bunch of static arrays, I think it makes sense to go ahead
and add lib/pmu.c. Hmm, and this should probably be further namespaced, e.g.
intel_pmu_arch_events

Please be consistent with names (even if KVM itself may be anything but). KVM
gets away with sloppiness because the arrays are only visible to pmu_intel.c,
but that's not the case here.
intel_pmu_fixed_pmc_events?

And then amd_pmu_arch_events.

Same namespace problem. And I'd put the "is" earlier so that it's clearly a
question and not a command, e.g. "is this arch event supported?" versus "this
arch event is supported".
So pmu_is_arch_event_supported()? Actually, no, you're reinventing the wheel.
You can query all of the Intel arch events from within the guest via this_pmu_has(),
e.g. see X86_PMU_FEATURE_BRANCH_INSNS_RETIRED. You just need a helper (or array)
to get from an arbitrary index to its associated feature.
And now that GUEST_ASSERT_EQ() prints values, you can just do
counter = _rdpmc(i);
GUEST_ASSERT_EQ(this_pmu_has(...), !!counter);
in guest_measure_loop() instead of funneling the counter into ucall and back to
the host.

More namespace problems. I don't love pmu_is_fixed_counter_supported(), because
that glosses over this operating on the vCPU, e.g. not KVM and not guest CPUID
(from within the guest).
And with a bit of massaging to the "anti-feature" framework, this_pmu_has() and
kvm_pmu_has() can be extended (unless I'm missing something).

That doesn't give you a direct path to replacing fixed_counter_is_supported(),
but the usage in intel_test_oob_fixed_ctr() is bizarre and looks wrong, e.g. if
it's not supported, the test does nothing.
