x86/perf: Use RET0 as default for guest_get_msrs to handle "no PMU" case
Initialize x86_pmu.guest_get_msrs to return 0/NULL to handle the "nop" case. Patching in perf_guest_get_msrs_nop() during setup does not work if there is no PMU, as setup bails before updating the static calls, leaving x86_pmu.guest_get_msrs NULL and thus a complete nop. Ultimately, this causes VMX abort on VM-Exit due to KVM putting random garbage from the stack into the MSR load list. Add a comment in KVM to note that nr_msrs is valid if and only if the return value is non-NULL.
