[PATCH 0/5] pv clock misc fixes

[Glauber Costa <glommer@redhat.com>]

Hello folks,

In this series, I present a couple of fixes for kvmclock.
In patch 1, a guest-side fix is proposed for a problem that is biting us
for quite a while now. the tsc inside VMs does not seem to be
that good, (up to now, only single-socket nehalems were stable enough),
and we're seeing small (but nevertheless wrong) time warps inside SMP guests.
I am proposing the fix to reside on common code in pvclock.c, but would
be good to hear Jeremy on this.

On the other 3 patches, I change kvmclock MSR numbers in a compatible
fashion. Both MSR sets will be supported for a while.

Patch 5 adds documentation about kvmclock, which to date, we lacked.

Glauber Costa (5):
  Add a global synchronization point for pvclock
  change msr numbers for kvmclock
  Try using new kvm clock msrs
  export new cpuid KVM_CAP
  add documentation about kvmclock
