The patches I submitted were for fixing architecture-related issues
while running kvm_stat on ARM platforms. I don't think tracepoint is
meant to replace debugfs for kvm profiling. Both methods have their own
benefits; and they are supported on x86 & ppc platforms. From this
perspective I don't mind taking this patch (after review).
