Should we instead of (or in addition to) this also make the same change
in core2_vpmu_do_wrmsr()?
Currently there's no need for this since - afaict - PV guests can't
write this MSR directly (it's not among the white listed set in
traps.c).
Then we probably shouldn't set VPMU_CPU_HAS_DS for PV guests.
Or add the MSR to the permitted set. You know better than I
what the best route here is.
I vaguely recall a conversation where we weren't sure whether BTS (which
needs DS area) will work for PV. Something to do with DS address being
in the right context (guest or host). I'd need to find that conversation
(or test BTS on PV).
