KVM module needs to know how many hardware counters the platform supports.
Otherwise, it will not be able to show optimal value of virtual
counters to the guest.

Do we really need rvpmu? From a quick scan of the series it's only used
for num_hw_counters, which has to be added to struct riscv_pmu, and
num_counters. How about instead creating a static global for num_counters
and then getting num_hw_counters by iterating pmu_ctr_list. If we want
riscv_pmu_sbi_get_num_hw_ctrs() to be faster, then we can cache the value
in a static variable in the function.

Thanks,
drew

Yes. I added rvpmu just for future usage if any.

iteration is fine as we are doing that for hpm_width anyways.

We have cmask now which can be cached in a static variable. We need to
retrieve the
counter width and the hardware counters for kvm. I have combined PATCH
1 & PATCH 2
to return both the values in one function.
