This series adds support for AMD's Host-Only and Guest-Only performance
counter eventsel bits in KVM's mediated PMU passthrough implementation.

These bits allow an nSVM-enabled guest to configure performance counters
that count only during L1 execution (Host-Only) or only during L2 execution
(Guest-Only).

KVM updates the hardware event selector ENABLE bit at the following state
transitions to ensure counters only count in the appropriate mode:

  - EFER.SVME changes: Enable/disable Guest-Only counters
  - Nested VMRUN: Disable Host-Only, enable Guest-Only counters
  - Nested VMEXIT: Enable Host-Only, disable Guest-Only counters

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/[email protected]/

v2: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/[email protected]/

v2 -> v3:
     * Dropped the svm_enter_guest_mode() and svm_leave_guest_mode()
       wrappers introduced in v2 [Yosry]
     * Introduced a generic nested_transition callback in kvm_x86_ops to
       avoid confusing SVM-specific wrappers and unnecessary code replication
     * Fixed a latent bug with L2 stack alignment, which was triggered by
       a movdqa instruction in l2_guest_code() that referenced the L2 stack.
       Note that l2_guest_code() expects the stack to be 16-byte misaligned
       at function entry. It was not.
