Nevermind, that can't work generally since clients are free to
mask/unmask the events, so we could miss a 0 count and thus a wrap. We
just have to live with the fact that swap events have a 32 bit sbc and
OML uses 64 bit counts. I'll add the warning though; if it becomes a
real issue we can potentially add another round trip to get the value
using OML instead.
