-pvti_cpu0_va is the address of shared kvmclock data structure.
-
-pvti_cpu0_va is currently kept unset (1) on 32 bit systems, (2) when
-kvmclock vsyscall is disabled, and (3) if kvmclock is not stable.
-This poses a problem, because kvm_ptp needs pvti_cpu0_va, but (1) can
-work on 32 bit, (2) has little relation to the vsyscall, and (3) does
-not need stable kvmclock (although kvmclock won't be used for system
-clock if it's not stable, so kvm_ptp is pointless in that case).
-
-Expose pvti_cpu0_va whenever kvmclock is enabled to allow all users to
-work with it.
-
-This fixes a regression found on Gentoo: https://bugs.gentoo.org/658544.
