Sorry about that conflict. Given that both RCU and cputime were
competing with significant changes on this newborn subsystem, such
clash was hard to avoid.

The merge is mostly correct. There is just a small issue with
context_tracking_task_switch() kerneldoc style comment: it should be
moved out of guest_enter/guest_exit, newly introduced APIs, to be
right above context_tracking_task_switch() function. Otherwise it's
fine.

Thanks!
