But it's a pointer, which means we would have to keep checking for NULL
every time we need sched_clock().
Potentially it would cost a cache miss for PACA memory region that
contain vc, another for getting the part of *vc that contains the
tb_offset_applied, instead of only one for PACA struct region that
contains tb_offset.
On the other hand, it got me thinking: If the offset is applied per
cpu, why don't we get this info only in PACA, instead of in vc?
It could be a general way to get an offset applied for any purpose and
still get the sched_clock() right.
(Not that I have any idea of any other purpose we could use it)
Best regards!
