Like Xu 6ef25aa0a9 KVM: x86/pmu: Restrict advanced features based on module enable_pmu
Once vPMU is disabled, the KVM would not expose features like:
PEBS (via clear kvm_pmu_cap.pebs_ept), legacy LBR and ARCH_LBR,
CPUID 0xA leaf, PDCM bit and MSR_IA32_PERF_CAPABILITIES, plus
PT_MODE_HOST_GUEST mode.

What this group of features has in common is that their use
relies on the underlying PMU counter and the host perf_event as a
back-end resource requester or sharing part of the irq delivery path.

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.
