Akihiko Odaki 64074ca8ca KVM: arm64: PMU: Fix SET_ONE_REG for vPMC regs
Reload the perf event when setting the vPMU counter (vPMC) registers
(PMCCNTR_EL0 and PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0). This is a change corresponding to
commit 9228b26194 ("KVM: arm64: PMU: Fix GET_ONE_REG
for vPMC regs to return the current value") but for SET_ONE_REG.

Values of vPMC registers are saved in sysreg files on certain occasions.
These saved values don't represent the current values of the vPMC
registers if the perf events for the vPMCs count events after the save.
The current values of those registers are the sum of the sysreg file
value and the current perf event counter value.  But, when userspace
writes those registers (using KVM_SET_ONE_REG), KVM only updates the
sysreg file value and leaves the current perf event counter value as is.

It is also important to keep the correct state even if userspace writes
them after first run, specifically when debugging Windows on QEMU with
GDB; QEMU tries to write back all visible registers when resuming the VM
execution with GDB, corrupting the PMU state. Windows always uses the
PMU so this can cause adverse effects on that particular OS.

Fix this by releasing the current perf event and trigger recreating one
with KVM_REQ_RELOAD_PMU.
