Subject[PATCH 3/3] lguest: override sched_clock
From
Date
Guests currently use the default scheduler clock: this means they
always use jiffies even if TSC is actually available. It doesn't make
any noticeable difference here, but it's a better thing to do.

Also remove commented-out asm/sched-clock.h from -mm tree.
