Unless I'm missing something, there is zero reason to pass "base" and "being"
separately, just do the math in the host.  A "base" that isn't actually the base
when viewed without the full context is super confusing.

Ah, you did that so that the fixed counter test can reuse the guest code.  Just
use separate trampolines in the guest, e.g.

static void __guest_wrmsr_rdmsr(uint32_t base, uint8_t nr_msrs, bool expect_gp)
{
	uint64_t msr_val;
	uint8_t vector;
	uint32_t i;

	for (i = base; i < base + nr_msrs; i++) {
		vector = wrmsr_safe(i, 0xffff);
		GUEST_ASSERT(expect_gp ? vector == GP_VECTOR : !vector,
			     "...");

		vector = rdmsr_safe(i, &msr_val);
		GUEST_ASSERT(expect_gp ? vector == GP_VECTOR : !vector,
			     "...");
		if (!expect_gp)
			GUEST_ASSERT_EQ(msr_val, 0);
	}

	GUEST_DONE();
}

static void guest_rd_wr_fixed_counter(uint32_t base, uint8_t nr_msrs)
{
	__guest_wrmsr_rdmsr(base, nr_msrs, true);
}

static void guest_rd_wr_gp_counter(uint32_t base, uint8_t nr_msrs)
{
	uint64_t perf_capabilities = rdmsr();

	__guest_wrmsr_rdmsr(base, nr_msrs, !!perf_capabilities);
}
