Subject: [patch 3/3] LatencyTOP instrumentations part 2

A few more high level annotations for LatencyTOP;
split into a separate patch since they're at a higher level
than the first part (and thus hide some lower level details
potentially, but could also obsolete several other low level
instrumentations)
