I'll move them to linux/arm-smccc.h - I didn't want to place them in
pvclock-abi.h as it seemed wrong to pull that into the generic SMCCC
code which doesn't care about these structures.

Will add

Yes, this is because on an oddity in the specification that I'm tempted
to ignore. I originally had PV_FEATURES (only) in the switch in this
patch. However the specification states:

  If PV_func_id identifies  PV_FEATURES this function can return:
  • NOT_SUPPORTED (-1) to indicate that all functions in this
    specification are not supported.
  • SUCCESS (0) to indicate that one or more
    paravirtualization functions are supported.

Since by this patch we haven't reached "one or more" functions a strict
reading of the specification says that even PV_FEATURES should be
returning NOT_SUPPORTED.

Before getting lost in the above wording the specification I had tried
to make the LPT and stolen time patches not dependent on each other.
Given your other comments (in reply to the cover letter), I think I'll
merge this chunk with the first stolen time patch and put all the stolen
time patches first.

Thanks,

Steve
