Thanks for the review!

I have sent a seperate patch to remove it from pv_steal_clock:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221104061659.4116508-1-usama.arif@bytedance.com/.


I have removed it from pv_lock as well in the v2 patchset:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221104062105.4119003-1-usama.arif@bytedance.com/.

Thanks, I have simplified has_kvm_pvlock to above. I also changed the
code in the v2 revision, so that its just 1 hypercall,
ARM_SMCCC_VENDOR_HYP_KVM_PV_LOCK_FUNC_ID. This is similar to how it is
done in ptp_kvm vendor call.
