In the recent patch sets, we disable the guest PEBS when the guest PEBS counter is cross mapped to a host PEBS counter with a different index. When we use the watchdog feature on the Intel platforms, it may takes a cycle hw counter on the host and it may cause the guest PEBS counter temporarily disabled if it's cross mapped.
