kvm ptp targets to provide high precision time sync between guest
and host in virtualization environment. This patch enable kvm ptp
for arm64.
This patch set base on [1][2][3]
change log:
from v2 to v3:
(1) fix some issues in commit log.
(2) add some receivers in send list.
from v1 to v2:
(1) move arch-specific code from arch/ to driver/ptp/
(2) offer mechanism to inform userspace if ptp_kvm service is
available.
(3) separate ptp_kvm code for arm64 into hypervisor part and
guest part.
(4) add API to expose monotonic clock and counter value.
(5) refine code: remove no necessary part and reconsitution.

Jianyong Wu (6):
psci: Export psci_ops.conduit symbol as modules will use it.
ptp: Reorganize ptp_kvm modules to make it arch-independent.
timekeeping: Expose API allowing retrival of current clocksource and
counter value
psci: Add hvc call service for ptp_kvm.
ptp: arm64: Enable ptp_kvm for arm64
kvm: arm64: Add capability check extension for ptp_kvm
