[RFC v2 2/2] x86/kvmclock: Introduce kvm-hostclock clocksource.

From: Suleiman Souhlal
Date: Thu Oct 10 2019 - 03:38:27 EST


When kvm-hostclock is selected, and the host supports it, update our
timekeeping parameters to be the same as the host.
This lets us have our time synchronized with the host's,
even in the presence of host NTP or suspend.
