KVM: x86: Protect pmu_intel.c from Spectre-v1/L1TF attacks

commit 66061740f1a487f4ed54fde75e724709f805da53 upstream.

This fixes Spectre-v1/L1TF vulnerabilities in intel_find_fixed_event()
and intel_rdpmc_ecx_to_pmc().
kvm_rdpmc() (ancestor of intel_find_fixed_event()) and
reprogram_fixed_counter() (ancestor of intel_rdpmc_ecx_to_pmc()) are
exported symbols so KVM should treat them conservatively from a security
perspective.
