perf kvm by definition wants --guest enabled. Host profiling is done
with just 'perf record'; no need for the kvm layer at all. If you really
want to go through perf-kvm to record host events disable guest actions:

$ perf kvm --host --no-guest record -a sleep 1
[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
[ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.029 MB perf.data.host (~1255 samples) ]
