Eric Hankland 018d70ffcf KVM: x86: Update vPMCs when retiring branch instructions
When KVM retires a guest branch instruction through emulation,
increment any vPMCs that are configured to monitor "branch
instructions retired," and update the sample period of those counters
so that they will overflow at the right time.

[jmattson:
  - Split the code to increment "branch instructions retired" into a
    separate commit.
  - Moved/consolidated the calls to kvm_pmu_trigger_event() in the
    emulation of VMLAUNCH/VMRESUME to accommodate the evolution of
    that code.

README

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.
