[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH v2 1/2] core: introduce various platform metrics

[Igor Munkin]

Sergey,

Thanks for the patch! It looks OK in general, except several nits, I
left below.

Typo: we usually use whitespace prior to the list bullets (as you did in
the previous version).

Why did you emphasize that the counters relate to *this jit_State*?
There are no such mentions elsewhere.

One more time: consider the structure alignment and reorder the
introduced fields to avoid excess padding.

Typo: s/founded/found/.

Furthermore, please address the comments I left regarding the patch
you've made for CNEW IR[1] and squash it with this one.

Sergos, do we need other JIT architectures to be patched in scope of
this series or Sergey can just add the corresponding preprocessor
condition to stub the issue for now?
