Zachary Amsden e0bb864397 [PATCH] i386: Convert VMI timer to use clock events
Convert VMI timer to use clock events, making it properly able to use the NO_HZ
infrastructure.  On UP systems, with no local APIC, we just continue to route
these events through the PIT.  On systems with a local APIC, or SMP, we provide
a single source interrupt chip which creates the local timer IRQ.  It actually
gets delivered by the APIC hardware, but we don't want to use the same local
APIC clocksource processing, so we create our own handler here.

* When run under a hypervisor, a vcpu is always in one of three states:
* running, halted, or ready. The vcpu is in the 'running' state if it
* is executing. When the vcpu executes the halt interface, the vcpu
* enters the 'halted' state and remains halted until there is some work
* pending for the vcpu (e.g. an alarm expires, host I/O completes on
* behalf of virtual I/O). At this point, the vcpu enters the 'ready'
* state (waiting for the hypervisor to reschedule it). Finally, at any
* time when the vcpu is not in the 'running' state nor the 'halted'
* state, it is in the 'ready' state.
*
* Real time is advances while the vcpu is 'running', 'ready', or
* 'halted'. Stolen time is the time in which the vcpu is in the
* 'ready' state. Available time is the remaining time -- the vcpu is
* either 'running' or 'halted'.
*
* All three views of time are accessible through the VMI cycle
* counters.
