The HW_REF_CPU_CYCLES event on the fixed counter 2 is pseudo-encoded as
0x0300 in the intel_perfmon_event_map[]. Correct its usage.

In a follow up patch, would it be sane/appropriate to define these magic numbers
in asm/perf_event.h and share them between intel_perfmon_event_map and
intel_arch_events?  Without this patch, it's not at all obvious that these are
intended to align with the Core (arch?) event definitions.

The asm/perf_event.h is x86 generic and svm has a amd_perfmon_event_map.

How about adding an interface similar to perf_get_x86_pmu_capability()
so that we can use magic numbers directly from the host perf ?
(it looks we may have a performance drop, compared to static array)

Ugh, duh.

Alternatively, you could use the existing event_map() to generate
intel_arch_events[] during init.  That might be easier since, AFAICT, the array
indices have different meaning for KVM than for perf.

Honestly, unless there are going to be new arch events in the near-ish future,
it may not be worth the effort at this point.  Until now, the above table hadn't
changed in over five years.  I.e. don't put a bunch of effort into this unless
you want to :-)
