[PATCH v4 10/10] kvmclock: implement the extended reading function

Denis Plotnikov
2017-08-02T14:39:32Z

This allows L2 guests to use masterclock, namely
provide KVM with ability to use masterclock while
running over kvmclock closksource in the cases when
it's possible.

This is the final part of the work of teaching KVM
to use masterclock when over kvmclock clocksource.
