This is the guest part of kvm clock implementation It does not do tsc-only timing, as tsc can have deltas between cpus, and it did not seem worthy to me to keep adjusting them. We do use it, however, for fine-grained adjustment. Other than that, time comes from the host. Signed-off-by: Glauber

This is the host part of kvm clocksource implementation. As it does not include clockevents, it is a fairly simple implementation. We only have to register a per-vcpu area, and start writting to it periodically. The area is binary compatible with xen, as we use the same shadow_info structure.
