This patch description doesn't cover what the patch actually does. It 
changes the implementation from "always tell the guest it uses 100%" to 
"give the guest an accurate amount of cpu time spent inside guest context".

Also, I think we either go with full hyp semantics which means we also 
emulate the offset or we go with no hyp awareness in the guest at all 
which means we also don't emulate SPURR which is a hyp privileged register.

Otherwise I like the patch :).
