This patch adds basic support for the VTB. PowerISA: The Virtual Time Base (VTB) is a 64-bit incrementing counter. Virtual Time Base increments at the same rate as the Time Base until its value becomes 0xFFFF_FFFF_FFFF_FFFF (2 64 - 1); at the next increment its value becomes 0x0000_0000_0000_0000. There is no interrupt or other indication when this occurs. The operation of the Virtual Time Base has the following additional properties. 1. Loading a GPR from the Virtual Time Base has no effect on the accuracy of the Virtual Time Base. 2. Copying the contents of a GPR to the Virtual Time Base replaces the contents of the Virtual Time Base with the contents of the GPR. Signed-off-by:Cyril Bur <cyril.bur@au1.ibm.com> Signed-off-by:
