[PATCH 3/5] KVM: x86/pmu: Move the overflow of a normal counter out of PMI context

[Like Xu <like.xu.linux@gmail.com>]

From: Like Xu <likexu@tencent.com>

From the guest's point of view, vPMU's global_status bit update following
a counter overflow is completely independent of whether it is emulated
in the host PMI context. The guest counter overflow emulation only depends
on whether pmc->counter has an overflow or not. Plus the counter overflow
generated by the emulation instruction has been delayed and not been
handled in the PMI context. This part of the logic can be unified by
reusing pmc->prev_counter for a normal counter. However for a PEBS
counter, its buffer overflow irq still requires hardware to trigger PMI.
