The patch add paravirt interface for guest kernel, it checks whether
system runs on VM mode. If it is, it will detect hypervisor type. And
returns true it is KVM hypervisor, else return false. Currently only
KVM hypervisor is supported, so there is only hypervisor detection
for KVM type.

I guess you are talking of pv_guest_init() here? Or do you mean
kvm_para_available()?

This is the 4th arch with the same definition of native_steal_clock() and
pv_steal_clock. I think we should add a common file kernel/paravirt.c and
move the related functions from the archs into the new file.

If you don't want to do that I can prepare a series.

Any reason pv_guest_init() needs to return a value at all, seeing that you don't
use the returned value?
