KVM's pmu.c contains the __hyp_text needed to switch the pmu registers
between host and guest. Because this isn't covered by the 'hyp' Makefile,
it can be built with kasan and friends when these are enabled in Kconfig.
When starting a guest, this results in:

This is caused by functions in pmu.c calling the instrumented

Move the affected code to a new file under 'hyp's Makefile.

The kvm_vcpu_pmu_{read,write}_evtype_direct functions do not handle
the cycle counter use-case, this leads to inaccurate counts and a
WARN message when using perf with the cycle counter (-e cycle).
Let's fix this by adding a use case for pmccfiltr_el0.

Upon entering or exiting a guest we may modify multiple PMU counters to
enable of disable EL0 filtering. We presently do this via the indirect
PMXEVTYPER_EL0 system register (where the counter we modify is selected
by PMSELR). With this approach it is necessary to order the writes via
isb instructions such that we select the correct counter before modifying
it.
Let's avoid potentially expensive instruction barriers by using the
direct PMEVTYPER<n>_EL0 registers instead.
As the change to counter type relates only to EL0 filtering we can rely
on the implicit instruction barrier which occurs when we transition from
EL2 to EL1 on entering the guest. On returning to userspace we can, at the
latest, rely on the implicit barrier between EL2 and EL0. We can also
depend on the explicit isb in armv8pmu_select_counter to order our write
against any other kernel changes by the PMU driver to the type register as
a result of preemption.

With VHE different exception levels are used between the host (EL2) and
guest (EL1) with a shared exception level for userpace (EL0). We can take
advantage of this and use the PMU's exception level filtering to avoid
enabling/disabling counters in the world-switch code. Instead we just
modify the counter type to include or exclude EL0 at vcpu_{load,put} time.
We also ensure that trapped PMU system register writes do not re-enable
EL0 when reconfiguring the backing perf events.
This approach completely avoids blackout windows seen with !VHE.

Enable/disable event counters as appropriate when entering and exiting
the guest to enable support for guest or host only event counting.
For both VHE and non-VHE we switch the counters between host/guest at
EL2.
The PMU may be on when we change which counters are enabled however
we avoid adding an isb as we instead rely on existing context
synchronisation events: the eret to enter the guest (__guest_enter)
and eret in kvm_call_hyp for __kvm_vcpu_run_nvhe on returning.

In order to effeciently switch events_{guest,host} perf counters at
guest entry/exit we add bitfields to kvm_cpu_context for guest and host
events as well as accessors for updating them.
A function is also provided which allows the PMU driver to determine
if a counter should start counting when it is enabled. With exclude_host,
we may only start counting when entering the guest.
