Here we are using the Guest "Virtual time" for the trace, which could be
different from that of the "host" (if the trace covers both). Thus
correlating the trace could be difficult if someone wants to do that.
We could switch to using Physical time, for the guest trace always,
matching the host time for correlating the events. (Assuming we are not
a Guest Hypervisor).
Rest looks fine to me.

nit: Some day, we should move to using the "event->attrs" directly, than
translating them to these values.
