Indeed, we are not accounting for all cycles. Only the cycles spent in
the packet_fwd_t functions. This was already the case before my series
I only added the busy cycles accounting.
However, I agree that this should be updated to take all cycles into
account (as much as it is possible with the current code base). Maybe
this could be done as a separate patch or do you want to include it in
this series?

I had missed that. Indeed, no need for a new field. I'll address that in
v9.
