Heh, 50 instances of passthrough, and then someone decides to shave a few characters
with passthru :-)  Long live mediated PMU!!!

Curly braces aren't needed, and this can use "pmu" instead of "vcpu_to_pmu".

More code that's probably cleaner if the helper handles the PMU type.

	nested_vmx_set_pmu_msr_intercepts(vcpu, msr_bitmap_l1, msr_bitmap_l0);

and then

	if (!enable_mediated_pmu || !pmu->version)
		return;
