This is on by default in gem5 (see src/cpu/kvm/BaseKvmCPU.py), however
the perf counters only measure host instruction counters and GPUFS is
not concerned about accuracy of KVM CPU stats. There are also a larger
set of users who have access to KVM, but do not have the paranoid level
low enough to attach performance counters.
Therefore, make the performance counters OFF by default. They can still
be enabled, but this will allow for a larger set of users to follow the
upcoming GPUFS documentation without needing to read through a
troubleshooting section after seeing a gem5 error about the KVM paranoid
level.
