This may be a stupid question, but what happens if a KVM
guest with this change, runs on a kernel that still has
the old steal time interface?
What happens if the host has the new steal time interface,
but the guest uses the old interface?
Will both cases continue to work as expected with your
patch series?
If so, could you document (in the source code) why things
continue to work?
