Wei Wang 0144ba0c5b KVM: x86: use the KVM side max supported fixed counter
KVM vPMU doesn't support to emulate all the fixed counters that the
host PMU driver has supported, e.g. the fixed counter 3 used by
Topdown metrics hasn't been supported by KVM so far.

Rename MAX_FIXED_COUNTERS to KVM_PMC_MAX_FIXED to have a more
straightforward naming convention as INTEL_PMC_MAX_FIXED used by the
host PMU driver, and fix vPMU to use the KVM side KVM_PMC_MAX_FIXED
for the virtual fixed counter emulation, instead of the host side
INTEL_PMC_MAX_FIXED.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
