This patch series adds instrumentation to Hypervisor calls.  Code and
ideas were taken from the patch set provided by Christopher Yeoh.

The idea is to put all instrumentation code behind a configuration
option so that it can easily be added/removed.  The instrumentation
code is kept to a minimum in the hopes that it's impact to performance
will not be noticed.  Statistics are made available via files in sysfs.
