[PATCH 18/58] KVM: arm64: Allow creating the PMU without the in-kernel GIC

From: Christoffer Dall <cdall at linaro.org>

Since we got support for devices in userspace which allows reporting the
PMU overflow output status to userspace, we should actually allow
creating the PMU on systems without an in-kernel irqchip, which in turn
requires us to slightly clarify error codes for the ABI and move things
around for the initialization phase.
