Here's the patch to make sched_clock generic. I didn't know
where to put it so I just made a new file in kernel/sched
for now.

Hey Stephen,
     Baruch just asked a question about moving arm's sched_clock.c to
be generic, and it sounded familiar, so I dug around and found this
mail from a few months ago.

Just wanted to follow up and see what the status is with this? Is
this queued somewhere already?
As far as I know nothing has been queued. I refreshed the
patchset against 3.10-rc2 but haven't sent it out since it wasn't
clear if anyone wanted it. Shall I send it again?
Please. Even if it need an eventual deeper rework to be totally generic, 
I think we need to start moving things in that generic direction. 
Baruch's case is a clear example where non-arm code could share it, so I 
think that's at least a good proof point that sharing is actually needed 
(rather then just for theoretical reasons).

thanks
