Remove CONFIG_PERF_EVENT=n stubs for functions that are effectively
KVM-only. KVM selects PERF_EVENT and will never consume the stubs.
Dropping the unnecessary stubs will allow simplifying x86_perf_get_lbr()

Giggling, I used to have a similar cleanup patch sitting in a corner somewhere.

by getting rid of the impossible-to-hit error path (which KVM doesn't
even check).

Opportunstically reorganize the declarations to collapse multiple
CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS #ifdefs.

Oops, now the definition of PERF_NEEDS_LOPWR_CB will not be unset.
This is not mentioned in the commit message and may cause trouble.
