Back again at this one :)

I took a better look at all msgs related to this bug and I'd like to 
suggest the following:

A) default event reporting to exclude cyclic activity as (per Aubrey's 
suggestion) this is irrelevant to sys admins

B) add an option to display cyclic firings as it is now, which includes 
batch processed events

C) add an option to display cyclic events but exclude cyclics which 
expire at the same time, which seems to be the criteria that the cyclic 
subsystem uses to batch process them

I have a patch for this but wanted to check if I'm conceptually on the 
right track. With C), genunix`clock, genunix`cyclic_timer and 
unix`cbe_hres_tick always add up to ~100. But the sum of wakeups are 
still not adding up perfectly.

What do you think ?

thanks
Rafael
