[PATCH 86/89] KVM: arm64: Reformat/beautify PTP hypercall documentation

Thu May 19 06:42:01 PDT 2022


The PTP hypercall documentation doesn't produce the best-looking table
when formatting in HTML as all of the return value definitions end up
on the same line.

Reformat the PTP hypercall documentation to follow the formatting used
by hypercalls.rst.

 It relies on transferring the wall clock and counter value from the
 host to the guest using a KVM-specific hypercall.
