KVM: arm64: Allow userspace to limit the number of PMU counters for EL2 VMs
As long as we had purely EL1 VMs, we could easily update the number of guest-visible counters by letting userspace write to PMCR_EL0.N. With VMs started at EL2, PMCR_EL1.N only reflects MDCR_EL2.HPMN, and we don't have a good way to limit it. For this purpose, introduce a new PMUv3 attribute that allows limiting the maximum number of counters. This requires the explicit selection of a PMU.
