Subject[PATCH 5.10 539/545] kvm: x86/pmu: Fix the compare function used by the pmu event filter
Date
From: Aaron Lewis <aaronlewis@google.com>

commit 4ac19ead0dfbabd8e0bfc731f507cfb0b95d6c99 upstream.

When returning from the compare function the u64 is truncated to an
int. This results in a loss of the high nybble[1] in the event select
and its sign if that nybble is in use. Switch from using a result that
can end up being truncated to a result that can only be: 1, 0, -1.

[1] bits 35:32 in the event select register and bits 11:8 in the event
select.
