      3PTP_KVM support for arm/arm64
      4=============================
      5
      6PTP_KVM is used for high precision time sync between host and guests.
      7It relies on transferring the wall clock and counter value from the
      8host to the guest using a KVM-specific hypercall.

     10* ARM_SMCCC_VENDOR_HYP_KVM_PTP_FUNC_ID: 0x86000001
     11
     12This hypercall uses the SMC32/HVC32 calling convention:
