Hi Gautam,

Thanks for the patch. My review comments inline below:

Why are you doing both pointer ref and deref ?
Also why llabs is needed for tb_offset. You are anyways returning signed
value and printing signed value later in ppc_cpu_dump_state.

I think you can just do

return env->tb_env->tb_offset;

Minor:
There might be some userspace tooling depending on this dump
format. Would prefer if you introduce the new field to the end of
string.
