…est PEBS

After commit b752ea0 ("perf/x86/intel/ds: Flush PEBS DS when changing
PEBS_DATA_CFG"), the cpuc->pebs_data_cfg may save some bits that are not
supported by real hardware, such as PEBS_UPDATE_DS_SW. This would cause
the VMX hardware MSR switching mechanism to save/restore invalid values
for PEBS_DATA_CFG MSR, thus crashing the host when PEBS is used for guest.
Fix it by using the active host value from cpuc->active_pebs_data_cfg.

Fixes: b752ea0 ("perf/x86/intel/ds: Flush PEBS DS when changing PEBS_DATA_CFG")
