Can you tack on a patch to drop the return?  None of the callers consume it, and
it incorrectly implies that the incoming filter isn't modified.

Nit, reverse xmas tree is preferred:

	struct kvm_pmu_event_filter *f = (void *)__f;
	bool found = false;
	int i;

Hoever, I don't think this one needs to cast, the cast is only necessary when
invoking a KVM ioctl(), e.g. I believe this should work:

static void remove_event(struct __kvm_pmu_event_filter *f, uint64_t event)
{
	bool found = false;
	int i;

	for (i = 0; i < f->nevents; i++) {
		if (found)
			f->events[i - 1] = f->events[i];
		else
			found = f->events[i] == event;
	}
	if (found)
		f->nevents--;
}

Tabs, not spaces please.

Tabs.
