6a7458485b KVM: arm64: Document PV-time interface
Introduce a paravirtualization interface for KVM/arm64 based on the
"Arm Paravirtualized Time for Arm-Base Systems" specification DEN 0057A.

This only adds the details about "Stolen Time" as the details of "Live
Physical Time" have not been fully agreed.

User space can specify a reserved area of memory for the guest and
inform KVM to populate the memory with information on time that the host
kernel has stolen from the guest.

A hypercall interface is provided for the guest to interrogate the
hypervisor's support for this interface and the location of the shared
memory structures.

2f5947dfca Documentation: move Documentation/virtual to Documentation/virt
Renaming docs seems to be en vogue at the moment, so fix on of the
grossly misnamed directories.  We usually never use "virtual" as
a shortcut for virtualization in the kernel, but always virt,
as seen in the virt/ top-level directory.  Fix up the documentation
to match that.

Fixes: ed16648eb5 ("Move kvm, uml, and lguest subdirectories under a common "virtual" directory, I.E:")
