Shouldn't this be a per-vm property, not global host property?
Maybe it's better to control frequency of syncs (with 0=disabled)?

This patch adds trace points in the guest entry and exit code and also
for exceptions handled by the host in kernel mode - hypercalls and page
faults. The new events are added to /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events

kvm_get_dirty_log() provides generic handling of dirty bitmap, currently reused
by several architectures. Building on that we intrdoduce
kvm_get_dirty_log_protect() adding write protection to mark these pages dirty
for future write access, before next KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl call from user
space.
Allow architectures to override the generic kvm_flush_remote_tlbs()
function via HAVE_KVM_ARCH_TLB_FLUSH_ALL. ARMv7 will need this to
provide its own TLB flush interface.
