Is there a better place for this than a static global? I was pondering
tcg_ctx but that's not really visible to the runtime. Making it part of
the TB flags might be useful for only instrumenting certain segments of
the code but I suspect I'm bike-shedding at this point.

Duplicate line here.

This needs to be part of the cputlb API so only one call is made from
the architecture helpers. I would expect this patch to be the first and
the pmuserenr_el0 (or whatever else) to be a per-arch enhancement patch
on top.

Certainly inside the code generation I'd see this being controlled by
TCGContext, e.g. s->tlb_instruction

I appreciate this is currently test code for gathering numbers but it
would be nice to see if there is a nice way to integrate it upstream
(maybe for --enable-debug-tcg builds).
