Update the description of the PMU KVM_{GET, SET}_DEVICE_ATTR error codes
to be a better match for the code that returns them.

I think -ENXIO matched the code better before the change.
KVM_SET_DEVICE_ATTR for KVM_ARM_VCPU_PMU_V3_IRQ returns -ENXIO if
CONFIG_KVM_ARM_PMU is not set (in include/kvm/arm_pmu.h).

But I think I understand what you mean, you're referring to
kvm_arm_pmu_v3_get_attr(), which returns -ENXIO if the irq number was not set. I
can change the description to "PMUv3 not supported or the overflow interrupt not
set when attempting to get it", what do you think?
Works for me.

Thanks,
