So if we find a PMU that is completely bonkers (we *know* we cannot
make use of it), we still pick it? What is the point?
Honestly, I don't think this warning adds any value, and doesn't seem
to be required for this patch anyway.

How is that going to work when the PMU supports a fixed instruction
counter, as it is the case with FEAT_PMUv3_ICNTR? The kernel doesn't
support it yet, but this will eventually be the case, and this little
game will break.

Can you make the return type of kvm_arm_pmu_get_max_counters()
homogeneous with that of pmcr_n?

So since you don't provide a set_user() callback, userspace can still
write anything it wants. Should we take this opportunity to sanitise
things a bit?
