KVM caches MDCR_EL2 on a per-CPU basis in order to preserve the
configuration of MDCR_EL2.HPMN while running a guest. This is a bit
gross, since we're relying on some baked configuration rather than the
hardware definition of implemented counters.
Discover the number of implemented counters by reading PMCR_EL0.N
instead. This works because:
- In VHE the kernel runs at EL2, and N always returns the number of
counters implemented in hardware
- In {n,h}VHE, the EL2 setup code programs MDCR_EL2.HPMN with the EL2
view of PMCR_EL0.N for the host
Lastly, avoid traps under nested virtualization by saving PMCR_EL0.N in
host data.

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 reStructuredText 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.
