[PATCH 1/4] as recent CPUs introduce a third running state, after "user" and
"system", we need a new field, "guest", in cpustat to store the time used by
the CPU to run virtual CPU. Modify /proc/stat to display this new field.
I think it would be good to always print out that number, even if
it is zero without the CONFIG option set.
Changing the format of /proc/stat depending on config options is
probably worse than changing it when moving kernel versions.
I guess reusing the "steal" field is not a good idea, since your
new "guest time" has different semantics than the steal time field.
