commit 5eb849322d7f7ae9d5c587c7bc3b4f7c6872cd2f upstream.
Zen renumbered some of the performance counters that correspond to the
well known events in perf_hw_id. This code in KVM was never updated for
that, so guest that attempt to use counters on Zen that correspond to the
pre-Zen perf_hw_id values will silently receive the wrong values.
This has been observed in the wild with rr[0] when running in Zen 3
guests. rr uses the retired conditional branch counter 00d1 which is
incorrectly recognized by KVM as PERF_COUNT_HW_STALLED_CYCLES_BACKEND.
