The test is inspired by the pmu_event_filter_test which implemented by x86. On the arm64 platform, there is the same ability to set the pmu_event_filter through the KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_FILTER attribute. So add the test for arm64.
The series first move some pmu common code from vpmu_counter_access to lib/aarch64/vpmu.c and include/aarch64/vpmu.h, which can be used by pmu_event_filter_test. Then fix a bug related to the [enable|disable]_counter, and at last, implement the test itself.
Changelog: ---------- v1->v2: - Improve the commit message. [Eric] - Fix the bug in [enable|disable]_counter. [Raghavendra & Marc] - Add the check if kvm has attr KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_FILTER. - Add if host pmu support the test event throught pmceid0. - Split the test_invalid_filter() to another patch. [Eric]
