All good. I've vented steam and am back to normal pressure :)

Not yet, but soon :)

I have no objections if you collect hyper-v stuff, quite the contrary, but
changes which touch other subsystems need to be coordinated upfront. That's
all I'm asking for.

Btw, that clocksource stuff looks good code wise, just the change logs need
some care and after the VDSO stuff hits next we need to sort out the
logistics. I hope these changes are completely self contained. If not we'll
find a solution.

Thanks,
