Again; for the virt illiterate people here (me); why is it expensive to
check guest DS?

Why do we need to? Can't we simply always forward the PMI if the guest
has bits set in MSR_IA32_PEBS_ENABLE ? Surely we can access the guest
MSRs at a reasonable rate..

Sure, it'll send too many PMIs, but is that really a problem?

Where; I need a code reference here.

All the other code uses !iregs instead of !in_nmi(), also your
indentation is broken.
