Subject: [PATCH v5 20/24] perf: arm_pmuv3: Handle IRQs for Partitioned PMU
 guest counters

Because ARM hardware is not yet capable of direct interrupt injection
into guests, guest counters will still trigger interrupts that need to
be handled by the host PMU interrupt handler. Clear the overflow flags
in hardware to handle the interrupt as normal, but record which guest
overflow flags were set in the virtual overflow register for later
injecting the interrupt into the guest.
