[PATCH v4 0/3] KVM: x86: Provide a capability to disable APERF/MPERF read intercepts

[Jim Mattson <jmattson@google.com>]

Allow a guest to read IA32_APERF and IA32_MPERF, so that it can
determine the effective frequency multiplier for the physical LPU.

Commit b51700632e0e ("KVM: X86: Provide a capability to disable cstate
msr read intercepts") allowed the userspace VMM to grant a guest read
access to four core C-state residency MSRs. Do the same for IA32_APERF
and IA32_MPERF.

While this isn't sufficient to claim support for
CPUID.6:ECX.APERFMPERF[bit 0], it may suffice in a sufficiently
restricted environment (i.e. vCPUs pinned to LPUs, no TSC multiplier,
and no suspend/resume).

v1 -> v2: Add {IA32_APERF,IA32_MPERF} to vmx_possible_passthrough_msrs[]
v2 -> v3: Add a selftest
v3 -> v4: Collect all disabled_exit flags in a u64 [Sean]
          Improve documentation [Sean]
	  Add pin_task_to_one_cpu() to kvm selftests library [Sean]
