We have some debug information at /sys/kernel/debug/kvm/<vm>/vcpu#/timings
which shows the time it takes to run various parts of the code.

That infrastructure was written in the P8 timeframe and wasn't updated
along with the guest entry point changes for P9.

Ideally we would be able to just add new/different accounting points
to the code as it changes over time but since the P8 and P9 entry
points are different code paths we first need to separate them from
each other. This series alters KVM Kconfig to make that distinction.
