Can you explain why you renamed this? "has_pmu" matches
the comment: it indicates that the emulated CPU has a PMU.
has_host_pmu would be something different (and would only
apply to KVM). It also looks weird in the code in the board
model: we should be saying "if the guest CPU has a PMU, wire
up its interrupt", not "if the host CPU has a PMU, wire
up a guest CPU interrupt".

ARM_FEATURE_ bits are for guest CPU features, not for
recording information about the host CPU.

This definitely looks like the wrong place to be checking
kvm_enabled().
