To make Xen work correctly on Hygon platforms, reuse AMD's Xen support

I haven't looked in details at Zen's PMU but the PMC section in the spec
starts with
"There are six core performance events counters per thread..."
There are six core performance events counters per thread, so there are
six MSRs for these counters(0-5). Also there are four legacy PMC MSRs,
they are alias of the counters(0-3).
In this version of kernel Zen use the lagacy version of PMU MSRs for Xen.
For safety consideration, Dhyana just fullow this stategy. And it works
fine when VPMU enabled in Xen on Hygon platforms by testing with perf.
Thanks,
Pu Wen
