PMU checking can fail due to various reasons. On native machine, this is mostly caused by faulty hardware and it is reasonable to use KERN_ERR in reporting. However, when kernel is running on virtualized environment, this checking can fail if virtual PMU is not supported (e.g. KVM on AMD host). It is annoying to see an error message on splash screen, even though we know such failure is benign on virtualized environment. This patch checks if the kernel is running in a virtualized environment. If so, it will use KERN_INFO in reporting, which reduces the syslog priority of them. This patch was tested successfully on KVM.
