I had explained about that.
I had considered that option. However my conclusion is not share
he implementation because xen/ia64 timer interrupt isn't
paravirtualized with VCPUOP_xxx hypercall. But xen/ia64 emulates
ar.itm register. (ar.itm is interval time match register which triggers
interrupt when interval time counter becomes same value)
Since timer interruption is virtualized differently on xen/ia64,
the different implementation is a natural consequence.
