Defining kvm_arm_pmu_available in pmu-emul.c doesn't work as-is because pmu-emul.c
depends on CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS=y. Since pmu-emul.c is the only path that enables
the key, my plan is to add a prep match to bury kvm_arm_pmu_available behind the
existing #ifdef CONFIG_HW_PERF_EVENTS in arm_pmu.h and add a stub
for kvm_arm_support_pmu_v3(). The only ugly part is that the KVM_NVHE_ALIAS() also
gains an #ifdef, but that doesn't seem too bad.
