Add test to verify the behavior of the pmu event filter when an
incomplete kvm_pmu_event_filter structure is used. By running the
test, we can ensure that the pmu event filter correctly handles
incomplete structures and does not allow events to be counted when
they should not be.

This is completely busted. It "passes" by luck, not because it's a valid test.
The size of the argument is embedded in the IOCTL number itself, which means that
unless glibc is being very nice and using a macro + typeof + sizeof to sanity check
things, which I highly doubt is the case, this ioctl() is passing random stack data,
a.k.a. garbage, to KVM.
In short, drop this patch.

Thank you for letting us know about the issues with the patch. I will
drop the patch as suggested. Would you advise me to prepare version 3
to remove this patch?

More comments on the other patches are incoming, please hold off on v3 until then.
