As suggested by John, export time data similarly to how its
done by vsyscall support. This allows KVM to retrieve necessary
information to implement vsyscall support in KVM guests.

Thanks Marcelo, I like this much better then what you were proposing
privately earlier!
Fairly minor nit below.

My only request is could the update_pvclock_gtod() be implemented
similarly to the update_vsyscall, where the update function lives in the
pvclock code (maybe using a weak symbol or something) so we don't have
to have all these pvclock details in the timekeeping core?
thanks
