kvm_arm_get_host_cpu_features() used to add the PMU feature
unconditionally, and kvm_arch_init_vcpu() removed it when it is actually
not available. Conditionally add the PMU feature in
kvm_arm_get_host_cpu_features() to save code.

Not every KVM CPU is necessarily the "host" CPU type.
The "cortex-a57" and "cortex-a53" CPU types will work if you
happen to be on a host of that CPU type, and they don't go
through kvm_arm_get_host_cpu_features().

kvm_arm_vcpu_init() will emit an error in such a situation and I think it's better than silently removing a feature that the requested CPU type has. A user can still disable the feature if desired.
