kvm: x86/pmu: Fix the compare function used by the pmu event filter 

[ Upstream commit 4ac19ead0d ]

When returning from the compare function the u64 is truncated to an
int.  This results in a loss of the high nybble[1] in the event select
and its sign if that nybble is in use.  Switch from using a result that
can end up being truncated to a result that can only be: 1, 0, -1.

[1] bits 35:32 in the event select register and bits 11:8 in the event
    select.
