Commit aabcaf6ae2a0 ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV P9: Move host OS save/restore
functions to built-in") added a comment in switch_pmu_to_guest
function, indicating possibility of moving PMU handling code
to perf subsystem. But perf subsystem code compilation depends upon
the enablement of CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS whereas, kvm code don't have
any dependency on this config.
Patch remove this comment as switch_pmu_to_guest functionality is
needed even if perf subsystem is disabled.
