    x86/intel: Fix PERF_GLOBAL fixup when virtualised
    
    Logic using performance counters needs to look at
    MSR_MISC_ENABLE.PERF_AVAILABLE before touching any other resources.
    
    When virtualised under ESX, Xen dies with a #GP fault trying to read
    MSR_CORE_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL.
    
    Factor this logic out into a separate function (it's already too squashed to
    the RHS), and insert a check of MSR_MISC_ENABLE.PERF_AVAILABLE.
    
    This also avoids setting X86_FEATURE_ARCH_PERFMON if MSR_MISC_ENABLE says 
that
    PERF is unavailable, although oprofile (the only consumer of this flag)
    cross-checks too.
    
    Fixes: 6bdb965178bb ("x86/intel: ensure Global Performance Counter Control 
is setup correctly")
