I just thought it is much cleaner to call a generic "qemu_reset_vcpu"
function that _might_ do something related to resetting the vCPU state,
regardless of whether there is a tracing event for it or not.

Otherwise if someone wants to add some generic vCPU-resetting code in
the future, the tracing function might end up in the target-specific
code instead of the generic qemu code.

If you still think this is a bad idea I'll resend a patch with both
events renamed into trace_vcpu_init/trace_vcpu_reset.


Thanks,
