[PATCH v2] KVM: x86: zero kvmclock_offset when vcpu0 initializes kvmclock system MSR

From: Marcelo Tosatti
Date: Sat May 23 2015 - 16:07:19 EST


Initialize kvmclock base, on kvmclock system MSR write time,
so that the guest sees kvmclock counting from zero.

This matches baremetal behaviour when kvmclock in guest
sets sched clock stable.
