Subject: [PATCH v6 11/20] KVM: selftests: Test Intel PMU architectural events
 on fixed counters

From: Jinrong Liang <cloudliang@...cent.com>

Extend the PMU counters test to validate architectural events using fixed
counters.  The core logic is largely the same, the biggest difference
being that if a fixed counter exists, its associated event is available
(the SDM doesn't explicitly state this to be true, but it's KVM's ABI and
letting software program a fixed counter that doesn't actually count would
be quite bizarre).

Note, fixed counters rely on PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL.
