KVM: x86/pmu: Avoid CPL lookup if PMC enabline for USER and KERNEL is the same

Browse source

Don't bother querying the CPL if a PMC is (not) counting for both USER and
KERNEL, i.e. if the end result is guaranteed to be the same regardless of
the CPL.  Querying the CPL on Intel requires a VMREAD, i.e. isn't free,
and a single CMP+Jcc is cheap.
