The struct still has the old name.

Name of the struct not adjusted.

I'd just leave one element of padding and put the struct on the stack,
since we have no reason to think we'll need a lot of padding.

This is already mentioned below, and it's not clear that tsc is a guest
TSC value.

Already checked in kvm_get_walltime_and_clockread.

This file could potentially be used across multiple architectures (it's
not in arch/x86/include/uapi/asm), but EOPNOTSUPP is not the same on
all systems. Better use "95" which is the value it has on x86.

All this gives:
