Consider using void * for pointers that do not have any particular
semantics associated to them.

I sort of object to the 'MMIO' part of the name. The spec is quite
clear that this should be normal memory. That's purely cosmetic, but
still a bit confusing.

This, on the other side, is wrong. Since the pvtime pages are memory,
mapping them with device attributes will do the wrong thing (the
hypervisor will write to a cacheable mapping, and the guest will
bypass the cache due to the S2 override that you provide here).

kvm__register_ram() is more likely to lead to the behaviour you'd
expect.

It is a bit odd to have this hard failure if running on a system that
doesn't have pvtime. It forces the user to alter their command-line,
which is a bit annoying. I'd rather have a soft-fail here.

Thanks,
