It doesn't make sense to read the value of MDCR_EL2 on a non-A-profile

We might call pmu_counter_enabled() on an M-profile CPU (for example
from the migration pre/post hooks in machine.c); this should always
return false because these CPUs don't set ARM_FEATURE_PMU.

Avoid the assertion by not calling arm_mdcr_el2_eff() before we
have done the early return for "PMU not present".

This fixes an assertion failure if you try to do a loadvm or
savevm for an M-profile board.
