mainlining shenanigans
Russell reported that since 5.13, KVM's probing of the PMU has
started to fail on his HW. As it turns out, there is an implicit
ordering dependency between the architectural PMU probing code and
and KVM's own probing. If, due to probe ordering reasons, KVM probes
before the PMU driver, it will fail to detect the PMU and prevent it
from being advertised to guests as well as the VMM.
Obviously, this is one probing too many, and we should be able to
deal with any ordering.
Add a callback from the PMU code into KVM to advertise the registration
of a host CPU PMU, allowing for any probing order.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
