i'd suggest to remove the #ifdef and push it into xen-head.S.

why is this done?

does the native kernel lose memory here?

this is a cleanup unrelated to the purpose of the patch.

change this to tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()/restart_sched_tick() instead.

80+ chars line. (there are more instances of this throughout the patch)

comment coding style. (there are instances of this throughout the patch)

missing whitespace.

make it noret.

NACK for now, for the reasons outlined in the 'stolen time' thread. 
Stolen time accounting is a concept only related to the scheduler tick, 
it's not a concept that should leak into normal timer interrupt 
concepts.

that should be updated to clockevents. (i suspect it already is?)
