Also add new vcpu stats: halt_poll_success_ns, halt_poll_fail_ns and
halt_wait_ns to be used to accumulate the total time spend polling
successfully, polling unsuccessfully and waiting respectively, and
halt_successful_wait to accumulate the number of times the vcpu waits.
Given that halt_poll_success_ns, halt_poll_fail_ns and halt_wait_ns are
expressed in nanoseconds it is necessary to represent these as 64-bit
quantities, otherwise they would overflow after only about 4 seconds.

Paolo, would these new kvm_stats also be useful for the base implementation?
