KVM: x86/pmu: Bypass perf checks when emulating mediated PMU counter accesses
When emulating a PMC counter read or write for a mediated PMU, bypass the
perf checks and emulated_counter logic as the counters aren't proxied
through perf, i.e. pmc->counter always holds the guest's up-to-date value,
and thus there's no need to defer emulated overflow checks.
