Please don't make up random prefixes.  This should really be "x86/pmu".

>From Documentation/process/maintainer-kvm-x86.rst:

Shortlog
~~~~~~~~
The preferred prefix format is ``KVM: <topic>:``, where ``<topic>`` is one of::

  - x86
  - x86/mmu
  - x86/pmu
  - x86/xen
  - selftests
  - SVM
  - nSVM
  - VMX
  - nVMX

New topics do occasionally pop up, but please start an on-list discussion if
you want to propose introducing a new topic, i.e. don't go rogue.
