Omit all PMU MSRs from the "MSRs to save" list if the PMU is disabled so
that userspace doesn't waste time saving and restoring dummy values.  KVM
provides "error" semantics (read zeros, drop writes) for such known-but-
unsupported MSRs, i.e. has fudged around this issue for quite some time.
Keep the "error" semantics as-is for now, the logic will be cleaned up in
a separate patch.
