ptp_kvm will get this service through SMCC call.
The service offers wall time and cycle count of host to guest.
The caller must specify whether they want the host cycle count
or the difference between host cycle count and cntvoff.

This feels like a useless comment. On the other hand, you don't
document why we don't need to worry about -1 being used as the
top 32bits of the real time.

The control flow is really odd. You start by writing values to
the return array, and then have to overwrite it if you fail.

I came up with the following instead (including comments):

You have a patch with documentation in this series, and I don't think
this adds much.
