This patch series moves Hyper-V clock/timer code to a separate Hyper-V clocksource driver. Previously, Hyper-V clock/timer code and data structures were mixed in with other Hyper-V code in the ISA independent drivers/hv code as well as in ISA dependent code. The new Hyper-V clocksource driver is ISA independent, with a just few dependencies on ISA specific functions. The patch series does not change any behavior or functionality -- it only reorganizes the existing code and fixes up the linkages. A few places outside of Hyper-V code are fixed up to use the new #include file structure.
This restructuring is in response to Marc Zyngier's review comments on supporting Hyper-V running on ARM64, and is a good idea in general. It increases the amount of code shared between the x86 and ARM64 architectures, and reduces the size of the new code for supporting Hyper-V on ARM64. A new version of the Hyper-V on ARM64 patches will follow once this clocksource restructuring is accepted.
The code is diff'ed against the upstream tip tree: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git timers/vdso
Changes in v4: * Revised commit messages * Rebased to upstream tip tree
Changes in v3: * Removed boolean argument to hv_init_clocksource(). Always call sched_clock_register, which is needed on ARM64 but a no-op on x86. * Removed separate cpuhp setup in hv_stimer_alloc() and instead directly call hv_stimer_init() and hv_stimer_cleanup() from corresponding VMbus functions. This more closely matches original code and avoids clocksource stop/restart problems on ARM64 when VMbus code denies CPU offlining request.
Changes in v2: * Revised commit short descriptions so the distinction between the first and second patches is clearer [GregKH] * Renamed new clocksource driver files and functions to use existing "timer" and "stimer" names instead of introducing "syntimer". [Vitaly Kuznetsov] * Introduced CONFIG_HYPER_TIMER to fix build problem when CONFIG_HYPERV=m [Vitaly Kuznetsov] * Added "Suggested-by: Marc Zyngier"
