Sure, I was talking about Minfei's patches, not this one. :)  Of course
I need ack for this one.

__pvclock_read_cycles is pretty much the same as the code that is being
inlined.  Thus the only change is that __pvclock_read_cycles is called
inside the loop rather than outside, but the loop really is expected to
never roll so why make a copy in the first place?
