KVM: paravirtualized clocksource: host part

This is the host part of kvm clocksource implementation. As it does
not include clockevents, it is a fairly simple implementation. We
only have to register a per-vcpu area, and start writing to it periodically.

The area is binary compatible with xen, as we use the same shadow_info
structure.

[marcelo: fix bad_page on MSR_KVM_SYSTEM_TIME]
[avi: save full value of the msr, even if enable bit is clear]
[avi: clear previous value of time_page]
