Marc Zyngier 725ce66979 KVM: arm64: pmu: Set the CHAINED attribute before creating the in-kernel event
The current convention for KVM to request a chained event from the
host PMU is to set bit[0] in attr.config1 (PERF_ATTR_CFG1_KVM_PMU_CHAINED).

But as it turns out, this bit gets set *after* we create the kernel
event that backs our virtual counter, meaning that we never get
a 64bit counter.

Moving the setting to an earlier point solves the problem.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
