CVE-2024-47717: RISC-V: KVM: Don't zero-out PMU snapshot area before freeing data

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RISC-V: KVM: Don't zero-out PMU snapshot area before freeing data

With the latest Linux-6.11-rc3, the below NULL pointer crash is observed when SBI PMU snapshot is enabled for the guest and the guest is forcefully powered-off.

Clearly, the kvmvcpuwriteguest() function is crashing because it is being called from kvmpmuclearsnapshotarea() upon guest tear down.

To address the above issue, simplify the kvmpmuclearsnapshotarea() to not zero-out PMU snapshot area from kvmpmuclearsnapshotarea() because the guest is anyway being tore down.

The kvmpmuclearsnapshotarea() is also called when guest changes PMU snapshot area of a VCPU but even in this case the previous PMU snaphsot area must not be zeroed-out because the guest might have reclaimed the pervious PMU snapshot area for some other purpose.
