Xen maintains a base clock which measures nanoseconds since system
boot. This is provided to guests via a shared page which contains a
base time in ns, a tsc timestamp at that point and tsc frequency
parameters. Guests can compute the current time by reading the tsc
and using it to extrapolate the current time from the basetime. The
hypervisor makes sure that the frequency parameters are updated
regularly, paricularly if the tsc changes rate or stops.

This is implemented as a clocksource, so the interface to the rest of
the kernel is a simple clocksource which simply returns the current
time directly in nanoseconds.

Xen also provides a simple timer mechanism, which allows a timeout to
be set in the future. When that time arrives, a timer event is sent
to the guest. There are two timer interfaces:
- An old one which also delivers a stream of (unused) ticks at 100Hz,
and on the same event, the actual timer events. The 100Hz ticks
cause a lot of spurious wakeups, but are basically harmless.
- The new timer interface doesn't have the 100Hz ticks, and can also
fail if the specified time is in the past.

This code presents the Xen timer as a clockevent driver, and uses the
new interface by preference.

+ Xen clockevent implementation

+ single-shot timer with nanosecond resolution. However, sharing the
+ same event channel is a 100Hz tick which is delivered while the
+ vcpu is running. We don't care about or use this tick, but it will
+ cause the core time code to think the timer fired too soon, and
+ will end up resetting it each time. It could be filtered, but
+ doing so has complications when the ktime clocksource is not yet
+ the xen clocksource (ie, at boot time).
+
+ The new vcpu_op-based timer interface allows the tick timer period
+ to be changed or turned off. The tick timer is not useful as a
+ periodic timer because events are only delivered to running vcpus.
+ The one-shot timer can report when a timeout is in the past, so
+ set_next_event is capable of returning -ETIME when appropriate.
+ This interface is used when available.
