We currently find out about the presence of a HW PMU (or the handling of that PMU by perf, which amounts to the same thing) in a fairly roundabout way, by checking the number of counters available to perf. That's good enough for now, but we will soon need to find about about that on paths where perf is out of reach (in the world switch). Instead, let's turn kvm_arm_support_pmu_v3() into a static key.

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.
