There is an issue with this part - when we enable the
tracepoint, run the vcpu, but disable the tracepoint before vcpu exit,
this condition will not be hit and we will continue accumulating the
context switch times in the VPA. I'll send a v4 where I check for the
VPA flag. I'll also incorporate any other changes, if required.
Thanks,
Gautam
