time: export time information for KVM pvclock
As suggested by John, export time data similarly to how its done by vsyscall support. This allows KVM to retrieve necessary information to implement vsyscall support in KVM guests. Acked-by: John Stultz <johnstul@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
