Hi all,
this patch series introduces stolen ticks accounting for Xen on ARM.
Stolen ticks are clocksource ticks that have been "stolen" from the cpu,
typically because Linux is running in a virtual machine and the vcpu has
been descheduled.
To account for these ticks we introduce CONFIG_PARAVIRT and pv_time_ops
so that we can make use of:

kernel/sched/cputime.c:steal_account_process_tick


I am starting to be pretty confident about this patch series.

Please advice on what tree I should use to get this stuff upstream: most
of the changes are Xen specific, but it also contains few generic ARM
changes (the introduction of CONFIG_PARAVIRT and paravirt.c on ARM) and
a couple of lines in kernel/sched/cputime.c (a missing include).



Stefano Stabellini (4):
      xen: move xen_setup_runstate_info and get_runstate_snapshot to drivers/xen/time.c
      kernel: missing include in cputime.c
      arm: introduce CONFIG_PARAVIRT, PARAVIRT_TIME_ACCOUNTING and pv_time_ops
      xen/arm: account for stolen ticks
