We're currently facing timing problems in guests that do
calibration under heavy load, and then the load vanishes.
This means we'll have a much lower lpj than we actually should,
and delays end up taking less time than they should, which is a
nasty bug.

Solution is to pass on the lpj value from host to guest, and have it
preset.

This patch makes the needlessly global kvm_smp_prepare_boot_cpu() static.

This patch updates the kvm host code to use the pvclock structs
and functions, thereby making it compatible with Xen.

The patch also fixes an initialization bug: on SMP systems the
per-cpu has two different locations early at boot and after CPU
bringup.  kvmclock must take that in account when registering the
physical address within the host.

Since the pv_apic_ops are only present if CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC is compiled
in, kvmclock failed to build without this option.  This patch fixes this.

This patch writes 0 (actually, what really matters is that the
LSB is cleared) to the system time msr before shutting down
the machine for kexec.

Without it, we can have a random memory location being written
when the guest comes back

It overrides the functions shutdown, used in the path of kernel_kexec() (sys.c)
and crash_shutdown, used in the path of crash_kexec() (kexec.c)

This is the guest part of kvm clock implementation
It does not do tsc-only timing, as tsc can have deltas
between cpus, and it did not seem worthy to me to keep
adjusting them.

We do use it, however, for fine-grained adjustment.

Other than that, time comes from the host.
