KVM: x86: remove PMU FIXED_CTR3 from msrs_to_save_all
The fixed counter 3 is used for the Topdown metrics, which hasn't been
enabled for KVM guests. Userspace accessing to it will fail as it's not
included in get_fixed_pmc(). This breaks KVM selftests on ICX+ machines,
which have this counter.
To reproduce it on ICX+ machines, ./state_test reports:
==== Test Assertion Failure ====
lib/x86_64/processor.c:1078: r == nmsrs
pid=4564 tid=4564 - Argument list too long
1 0x000000000040b1b9: vcpu_save_state at processor.c:1077
2 0x0000000000402478: main at state_test.c:209 (discriminator 6)
3 0x00007fbe21ed5f92: ?? ??:0
4 0x000000000040264d: _start at ??:?
Unexpected result from KVM_GET_MSRS, r: 17 (failed MSR was 0x30c)
With this patch, it works well.
