Linux kernel source tree
Drop the return value from x86_perf_get_lbr() and have the stub zero out the @lbr structure instead of returning -1 to indicate "no LBR support". KVM doesn't actually check the return value, and instead subtly relies on zeroing the number of LBRs in intel_pmu_init(). Formalize "nr=0 means unsupported" so that KVM doesn't need to add a pointless check on the return value to fix KVM's benign bug. Note, the stub is necessary even though KVM x86 selects PERF_EVENTS and the caller exists only when CONFIG_KVM_INTEL=y. Despite the name, KVM_INTEL doesn't strictly require CPU_SUP_INTEL, it can be built with any of INTEL || CENTAUR || ZHAOXIN CPUs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
