The e.g. is a bit confusing here. Following the comment about a warning
message makes me thing it should be an example of the warning message,
but instead it's the command line parameters that generates a warning
message. I'd just drop it.

The feature not being available everywhere is a key motivator for this
series, and maybe should be written in the commit message. Right now
the feature is only available on a57 and a53, but libvirt doesn't know
that. With a property, libvirt can a) determine the feature doesn't
exist, by the lack of property and b) enable/disable the feature. Also,
by changing the default to 'off', libvirt can simply not emit a pmu=on,
when no pmu is desired. This allows the feature-doesn't-exist and the
feature-isn't-desired cases to be consistent.

nit: I think I'd like the following more

 if (cpu->has_pmu) {
     cpu->kvm_init_features[0] |= 1 << KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3;
 } else {
     unset_feature(&env->features, ARM_FEATURE_PMU);
 }

but whatever.
