[PATCH] powerpc: Instrument Hypervisor Calls

Hi Paul,

This patch addresses the issues you brought up with the previous version.
The most important issue being range checking of opcodes so the code does
not write outside the array.  You also suggested doing a load from TOC
instead of LOAD_REG_ADDR, because LOAD_REG_ADDR turns into 5 instructions.
I 'think' LOAD_REG_ADDR only turns into 5 instructions on 32 bit systems.
It is a single load from TOC on 64 bits as we are using it.

Here it is:

Add instrumentation for hypervisor calls on pseries.  Call statistics
include number of calls, wall time and cpu cycles (if available) and
are made available via debugfs.  Instrumentation code is behind the
HCALL_STATS config option and has no impact if not enabled.
