As pmu_msr_{read,write}() are now wrappers of pmu_msr_chk_emulated(),
remove them and use pmu_msr_chk_emulated() directly.

As pmu_msr_chk_emulated() could easily return false in the cases where
it would set *emul to false, remove the "emul" argument and use the
return value instead.

While at it, convert the data type of MSR index to u32 in functions
called in pmu_msr_chk_emulated().

Can you please remove the two "else" instances above? With directly returning
form the "if" clause they are no longer needed.
