But there absolutely is a functional change here, and user visible at
that. KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT ioctls can now fail with -ENODEV, which is not
part of the documented errors for the interface.

On top of my prior suggestion w.r.t. the default PMU helper, I'd rather
see this block look like:

	if (kvm_vcpu_has_pmu(vcpu)) {
		if (!kvm_arm_support_pmu_v3())
			return -EINVAL;
		/*
		 * When the vCPU has a PMU but no PMU is set for the
		 * guest yet, set the default one.
		 */
		if (unlikely(!kvm->arch.arm_pmu) && kvm_set_default_pmu(kvm))
			return -EINVAL;
	}

This would eliminate the possibility of returning ENODEV to userspace
where we shouldn't.
