kvm: x86: limit the maximum number of vPMU fixed counters to 3

Browse source

Some new Intel platforms (such as TGL) already have the
fourth fixed counter TOPDOWN.SLOTS, but it has not been
fully enabled on KVM and the host.

Therefore, we limit edx.split.num_counters_fixed to 3,
so that it does not break the kvm-unit-tests PMU test
case and bad-handled userspace.
