./drmgr -c cpu -a -r gives the following warning:

Make the hypervisor tracepoints conditional
by using TRACE_EVENT_FN_COND

Signed-off-by: Denis Kirjanov <kda at linux-powerpc.org>

v2 changes:
 - Use raw_smp_processor_id as suggested by BenH
 since since hcalls can be called from preemptable sections

v3 changes:
 - Fix the subject line
