perf/x86/core: Pass "struct kvm_pmu *" to determine the guest values
Splitting the logic for determining the guest values is unnecessarily confusing, and potentially fragile. Perf should have full knowledge and control of what values are loaded for the guest. If we change .guest_get_msrs() to take a struct kvm_pmu pointer, then it can generate the full set of guest values by grabbing guest ds_area and pebs_data_cfg. Alternatively, .guest_get_msrs() could take the desired guest MSR values directly (ds_area and pebs_data_cfg), but kvm_pmu is vendor agnostic, so we don't see any reason to not just pass the pointer.
