[PATCH v10 0/3] KVM: selftests: aarch64: Introduce pmu_event_filter_test

[Shaoqin Huang]

The test is inspired by the pmu_event_filter_test which implemented by x86. On
the arm64 platform, there is the same ability to set the pmu_event_filter
through the KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_FILTER attribute. So add the test for arm64.

The series first create the helper function which can be used
for the vpmu related tests. Then, it implement the test.

Changelog:
----------
v9->v10:
  - Remove the first_filter checking in the prepare_expected_pmce function.
  - Add a new macro EVENT_[ALLOW|DENY] to make the definition of filter more
  readable.
  - Some small improvements.

v8->v9:
  - Rebased to latest kvm-arm/next.

v7->v8:
  - Rebased to kvm-arm/next.
  - Deleted the GIC layout related staff.
  - Fixed the checking logic in the kvm_pmu_support_events.

v6->v7:
  - Rebased to v6.9-rc3.

v5->v6:
  - Rebased to v6.9-rc1.
  - Collect RB.
  - Add multiple filter test.

v4->v5:
  - Rebased to v6.8-rc6.
  - Refactor the helper function, make it fine-grained and easy to be used.
  - Namimg improvements.
  - Use the kvm_device_attr_set() helper.
  - Make the test descriptor array readable and clean.
  - Delete the patch which moves the pmu related helper to vpmu.h.
  - Remove the kvm_supports_pmu_event_filter() function since nobody will run
  this on a old kernel.

v3->v4:
  - Rebased to the v6.8-rc2.

v2->v3:
  - Check the pmceid in guest code instead of pmu event count since different
  hardware may have different event count result, check pmceid makes it stable
  on different platform.                        [Eric]
  - Some typo fixed and commit message improved.

v1->v2:
  - Improve the commit message.                 [Eric]
  - Fix the bug in [enable|disable]_counter.    [Raghavendra & Marc]
  - Add the check if kvm has attr KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_FILTER.
  - Add if host pmu support the test event throught pmceid0.
  - Split the test_invalid_filter() to another patch. [Eric]
