Do you think THWIDTH might extend beyond 12 bits in future? If so, it might
be worth juggling these bits around a bit so it's not sandwiched between
'rdpmc' and 'threshold_compare'. I defer to your judgement, however.

You can drop the 'inline's for these functions (and, in fact, this whole
file could do with that cleanup :)

I think this is correct, but you might want to look at how we handle this
in the SPE driver as I think it ends up looking cleaner and makes it pretty
obvious which bits correspond to the user ABI (i.e. config fields) and which
bits are part of architectural registers. I'm not saying you have to do it
that way, but please take a look if you haven't already.

Why is the IS_ENABLED() check needed here?

Why is it useful to take the minimum here? If userspace asks for a value
bigger than the maximum support threshold, shouldn't we return an error
rather than silently clamp it?

It's a bit messy having a mixture of GENMASK and MASK/SHIFT pairs. Please
can you either update what's there to use GENMASK, or use SHIFT/MASK for the
new addition?
