INTEL_PMC_MAX_GENERIC is currently 32, which exceeds the 18 contiguous
MSR indices reserved by Intel for event selectors. Since some machines
actually have MSRs past the reserved range, these may survive the
filtering of msrs_to_save array and would be rejected by KVM_GET/SET_MSR.
To avoid this, cut the list to whatever CPUID reports for the host's
architectural PMU.

README
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 Restructured Text 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.
