Hi Marc,
Tested on FVP and the nasty splat goes away, so it works for me:
Tested-by: Alexandru Elisei <alexandru.elisei at arm.com>
The guest visible PMCR_EL0.FZ0 bit added by FEAT_PMUv3p7 is cleared on
register reset/write because ARMV8_PMU_PMCR_MASK is 0xff. This makes the
bit behave as RES0, which is the architectural value for the field when
FEAT_PMUv3p7 is absent. So the patch looks correct to me:

Thanks,
