Subject: [PATCH v6 14/19] perf: arm_pmuv3: Handle IRQs for Partitioned PMU
 guest counters

Because ARM hardware is not yet capable of direct PPI 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 the virtual overflow
register for later injecting the interrupt into the guest.
