[PATCH 0/2] x86/vdso: Add Hyper-V TSC page clocksource support

[Vitaly Kuznetsov]

Hi,

Hyper-V TSC page clocksource is suitable for vDSO, however, the protocol
defined by the hypervisor is different from VCLOCK_PVCLOCK. Implemented the
required support. Simple sysbench test shows the following results:

Before:
# time sysbench --test=memory --max-requests=500000 run
...
real    1m22.618s
user    0m50.193s
sys     0m32.268s

After:
# time sysbench --test=memory --max-requests=500000 run
...
real	0m47.241s
user	0m47.117s
sys	0m0.008s

So it seems it is worth it. As nobody seems to be strongly offended by my RFC
I'm sending first non-RFC version. Patch 1 is made on top of K. Y.'s code
refactoring which moved tsc page clocksource to arch/x86/hyperv/hv_init.c,
this is currently present in Greg's char-misc-next tree.

Changes since RFC:
- Use mul_u64_u64_shr() instead of an open coded implementation
  [Andy Lutomirski, Thomas Gleixner]
- Don't use the same pvclock_page for both VCLOCK_PVCLOCK and
  VCLOCK_HVCLOCK, create another one [Andy Lutomirski]
- Fix issues reported by kbuild test robot.
- Rename HYPERV_CLOCK -> HYPERV_TSCPAGE to avoid the ambiguity.

I'm also going to try to optimize mul_u64_u64_shr() for 32bit but this can
be split from this series I guess.
