So we focus it on arm64. Also I have never tested it on arm32 machine
( we lack of arm32 machine)

I'm sure your employer can provide you with such a box. I can probably
even tell you which cupboard they are stored in... ;-)

Do you think it's necessary to enable ptp_kvm on arm32? If so, I can do that.

I can't see why we wouldn't, given that it should be a zero effort task
(none of the code here is arch specific).

To be clear, what I'm after is support for 32bit *guests*. I don't expect any
issue with a 32bit host (it's all common code), but you should be able to test
32bit guests pretty easily (most ARMv8.0 CPUs support 32bit EL1).
