I made that:

 	/*
 	 * Quirk: v2 perfmon does not report fixed-purpose events, so
+	 * assume at least 3 events, when not running in a hypervisor:
 	 */
+	if (version > 1) {
+		int assume = 3 * !boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR);
+
+		x86_pmu.num_counters_fixed =
+			max((int)edx.split.num_counters_fixed, assume);
+	}
 

Thanks!
