Yeah, there is no counter named "NONE". this is not a counter, and only means no counter data needed for guest and just do nothing.
If no this arm here, it will go to the default one and return "NOT_SUPPORTED"

Yeah, this is just represent no counter data needed from guest.
Some annotation should be added here.
