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 v5 to v6: (1) apply Mark's patch[4] to get SMCCC conduit. (2) add mechanism to recognize current clocksource by add clocksouce_id value into struct clocksource instead of method in patch-v5. (3) rename kvm_arch_ptp_get_clock_fn into kvm_arch_ptp_get_crosststamp. from v4 to v5: (1) remove hvc delay compensasion as it should leave to userspace. (2) check current clocksource in hvc call service. (3) expose current clocksource by adding it to system_time_snapshot. (4) add helper to check if clocksource is arm_arch_counter. (5) rename kvm_ptp.c to ptp_kvm_common.c from v3 to v4: (1) fix clocksource of ptp_kvm to arch_sys_counter. (2) move kvm_arch_ptp_get_clock_fn into arm_arch_timer.c (3) subtract cntvoff before return cycles from host. (4) use ktime_get_snapshot instead of getnstimeofday and get_current_counterval to return time and counter value. (5) split ktime and counter into two 32-bit block respectively to avoid Y2038-safe issue. (6) set time compensation to device time as half of the delay of hvc call. (7) add ARM_ARCH_TIMER as dependency of ptp_kvm for arm64. 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.
