KVM: x86/pmu: Disallow legacy LBRs if architectural LBRs are available 

Disallow enabling LBR support if the CPU supports architectural LBRs.
Traditional LBR support is absent on CPU models that have architectural
LBRs, and KVM doesn't yet support arch LBRs, i.e. KVM will pass through
non-existent MSRs if userspace enables LBRs for the guest.
