Ok, I will add them next version.

Sorry, I'm not sure what do you mean "three", the registers here is 4 from reg0 to reg3.

To keep consistency and precision, clock time and counter cycle must captured at the same time.
It will perform at ktime_get_snapshot.

For now, I have not considered ptp_kvm in nested virtualization. Also I'm not sure about if nested virtualization is
ready on arm64 , as I need test ptp_kvm on it. If so, I can consider it.

Sorry, what I want to do here is that return to guest with the error info.
Maybe I should set val[0] to -1 and break to let the guest know that error comes, as
the guest will check if val[0] is positive to determine the next step.
