Hi,

this issue with Clang and Paravirt is such an ancient issue.
Back to the days in 2011 before LLVMlinux was born, the project was
called lll-project.
Fact is the issue is today fixed.
Not sure about the credits Suggested-by/Reviewed-by in the
Linux-kernel development process.
I did not count the number of compiler runs here.
A Tested-by is OK for me.
Anyway, the beast is dead, this counts for me.

Regards,
