Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the kvm tree

Hi all,

After merging the kvm tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig)
failed like this:

arch/x86/kvm/x86.c: In function 'kvm_pv_clock_pairing':
arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:6157:2: error: unknown type name 'cycle_t'
  cycle_t cycle;
  ^
arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:6163:42: error: passing argument 2 of 'kvm_get_walltime_and_clockread' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]
  if (kvm_get_walltime_and_clockread(&ts, &cycle) == false)
                                          ^
arch/x86/kvm/x86.c:1665:13: note: expected 'u64 * {aka long long unsigned int *}' but argument is of type 'int *'
 static bool kvm_get_walltime_and_clockread(struct timespec *ts,
             ^

Caused by commit

  55dd00a73a51 ("KVM: x86: add KVM_HC_CLOCK_PAIRING hypercall")

I have used the version fo the kvm tree from next-20170207 for today.
