This is mostly a resend of a patch series I sent a little over a month
ago. I've reordered the patches so that John can pick up the first three
and get a generic sched_clock layer without having to take the 64 bit
patches. The last three patches add 64 bit support and move the architected
timers on ARM64 and ARM to use it.
Yea, so from the initial look over it, I think I'm happy with queuing
the first three patches, although I'd like to get some acks from arm
folks on at least the first two, just so no one is surprised with it
going through the -tip tree.
It looks like the arm64 bit stuff needs a few more iterations w/
Russell, so I'll not touch those.
We still have a ways to go to consolidate x86 into this (need to handle
pv hooks), but it should provide a base to get some of the simpler
arches sharing the same infrastructure.
Also I suspect we can maybe further combine this with the
kernel/sched/clock.c code, but I think this is a good start for now.
