We tell the guest to start tracing, and then tell the host to start. This
means that there are going to be missing events on the host when the host
starts tracing. That is,

tell guest to start:

guest starts:

   guest has events

guest switches to host:

<kvm_exit, but not traced>

host starts tracing:

Now we have guest events followed by host events but no kvm_exit, because
it was missed. Perhaps for guest tracing it would be wise to start the host
before the guest :-/
