Ok, so the infrastructure got merged already and from there the next
steps are in running with:
perf kvm --guest record -a -e cycles:H,kvm:kvm_exit
And then, with the patch below applied, try:
perf kvm --guestkallsyms kallsyms.guest --guestmodules modules.guest report -i perf.data.guest --munge-ppc-guest-sample kvm:kvm_exit
I'm almost there, it is still not resolving to the kernel DSO, etc, so I
get:

The patch does several of the things you did per sample, but only right after
opening the perf.data file, and I'll break it down in multiple patches, this is
just a heads up, please review it if you have the time, in the end we should
have a mechanism useful not just for PPC and that affects just 'perf kvm' in
this specific case.
