I gave you bad input earlier, for purely KVM-defined flags there's no need for an
intermediate KVM_X86_FEATURE_AMD_PMU_V2, this could simply be:

#define X86_FEATURE_AMD_PMU_V2 KVM_X86_FEATURE(CPUID_8000_0022_EAX, 0)

That's a moot point though because, after much searching because I had a very hard
time believing the kernel wouldn't want to know about this flag, I found commit

d6d0c7f681fd ("x86/cpufeatures: Add PerfMonV2 feature bit")

from nearly a year ago. I.e. to avoid confusiong, this needs to be a scattered
flag, not a purely KVM flag.
