The feature test should happen in pmu_ctr_stop_hw(), like what you did
above in pmu_ctr_start_hw().

This change should have been squashed in "[v3,07/11] lib: sbi: Allow
programmable counters to monitor cycle/instret events", where it was
introduced.

nits: replace the ending . with a space

This one is tricky. As mcountinhibit was introduced in privileged spec
v1.11 and PMU interrupt is being proposed in Sscofpmf, so without
mcountinhibit there is definitely no Sscofpmf ... Better to put some
comments here.
