Starting with Zen4, core PMU on AMD platforms such as Genoa and
Ryzen-7000 will support PerfMonV2, and it is also compatible with
legacy PERFCTR_CORE behavior and msr addresses.

If you don't have access to the hardware specification, the commits
d6d0c7f681fd..7685665c390d for host perf can also bring a quick
overview. Its main change is the addition of three msr's equivalent
to Intel V2, namely global_ctrl, global_status, global_status_clear.

It is worth noting that this feature is very attractive for reducing the
overhead of PMU virtualization, since multiple msr accesses to multiple
counters will be replaced by a single access to the global register,
plus more accuracy gain when multiple guest counters are used.

The KVM part is based on the latest vPMU fixes patch set [1], while
the kvm-unit-test patch relies on preemptive test cases effort [2] for
testing leagcy AMD vPMU, which didn't exist before.

All related testcases are passed on a Genoa box.
Please feel free to run more tests, add more or share comments.
