PATCH 1/1 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 kvm_vcpu_write_guest() function is crashing because it is being called from kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() upon guest tear down.
To address the above issue, simplify the kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() to not zero-out PMU snapshot area from kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() because the guest is anyway being tore down.
The kvm_pmu_clear_snapshot_area() 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.
