From: Christian Ehrhardt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The current kvmtrace code uses get_cycles() while the interpretation would be
easier using using nanoseconds. ktime_get() should give at least the same
accuracy as get_cycles on all architectures (even better on 32bit archs) but
at a better unit (e.g. comparable between hosts with different frequencies.
V3 of this patch now uses the ktime_get() as discussed on the mailing list.
This ensures that the granularity is always 64 bit on all architetcures and
in the background getnstimeofday is used giving us ns granularity.
Additionally this gives us only one generic implementation without need for
an arch hook.
