[PATCH v4 09/10] pvclock: add clocksource change notification on changing of tsc stable bit

[Denis Plotnikov]

It's needed to notify the KVM guest about critical changes in pvclock
and make it to update its masterclock.

This is a part of the work aiming to make kvmclock be a clocksource
providing valid cycles value for KVM masterclock, another words
make possible to use KVM masterclock over kvmclock clocksource.
