[PATCH v3 5/7] KVM: x86/pmu: Defer counter emulated overflow via pmc->prev_counter

From: Like Xu
Date: Wed Aug 31 2022 - 04:54:18 EST


From: Like Xu <likexu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Defer reprogramming counters and handling overflow via KVM_REQ_PMU
when incrementing counters. KVM skips emulated WRMSR in the VM-Exit
fastpath, the fastpath runs with IRQs disabled, skipping instructions
can increment and reprogram counters, reprogramming counters can
sleep, and sleeping is disallowed while IRQs are disabled.

Add a field to kvm_pmc to track the previous counter value in order
to defer overflow detection to kvm_pmu_handle_event() (reprogramming
must be done before handling overflow).

Opportunistically shrink sizeof(struct kvm_pmc) a bit.
