At the moment we update the chain bitmap on type setting. This
does not take into account the enable state of the odd register.

Let's make sure a counter is never considered as chained if
the high counter is disabled.

We recompute the chain state on enable/disable and type changes.

Also let create_perf_event() use the chain bitmap and not use
kvm_pmu_idx_has_chain_evtype().

History
Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
