I find it a bit awkward to have this redefined here.

Maybe we could define a helper in kvm_host.h:
bool kvm_pmu_typer_is_chain(u64 typer);

That would always return false for arm32?

We don't support ARMv7 host, so that doesn't matter. But
it is a good idea to wrap it in a function here.

I'm not very familiar with the usage of perf attributes configs, but is
there any chance we could name this flag? Even if only for the local
file? Something like PERF_ATTR_CFG1_KVM_PMU_CHAINED (unless there is an
existing naming convention for event attributes).

There is ARPMU_EVT_64BIT in "linux/perf/arm_pmu.h". But in general we don't
specify where the Bit goes in (i.e, CFG1 etc).

Cheers
