[RFC PATCH v2 10/28] KVM: arm64: Hide IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED PMU support for the guest

When ID_AA64DFR0_EL1.PMUVER or ID_DFR0_EL1.PERFMON is 0xf, which
means IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED PMU supported, KVM unconditionally
expose the value for the guest as it is.  Since KVM doesn't support
IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED PMU for the guest, in that case KVM should
exopse 0x0 (PMU is not implemented) instead.

Change cpuid_feature_cap_perfmon_field() to update the field value
to 0x0 when it is 0xf.
