Agree! Also to meet the requirement of supporting multiple guest time
resources such as RTC, ACPI time that are used as primary platform time
resource in some other non linux unmodified OSes. We are trouble in
synchronizing all those time resource if they are in different place.
So, it is time to pull all of them into Xen :-)
