While the driver for the Hyper-V Reference TSC and STIMERs is architecture neutral, vDSO is implemented for x86/x64, but not for ARM64. Current code calls into utility functions under arch/x86 (and coming, under arch/arm64) to handle the difference. Change this approach to handle the difference inline based on whether VDSO_CLOCK_MODE_HVCLOCK is present. The new approach removes code under arch/* since the difference is tied more to the specifics of the Linux implementation than to the architecture. No functional change.A suggestion belowquoted

I can see the handful of places where the .enable function is invoked, and there doesn't seem to be much difference. In any case, I have no problem with making the change in a v3 of the patch set.
It is just coding style, it allows to remove a #ifdef in the code. -- <http://www.linaro.org/> Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs Follow Linaro: <http://www.facebook.com/pages/Linaro> Facebook | <http://twitter.com/#!/linaroorg> Twitter | <http://www.linaro.org/linaro-blog/> Blog
