[PATCH v4 00/11] KVM: Implement nested TSC scaling

[Ilias Stamatis]

KVM currently supports hardware-assisted TSC scaling but only for L1;
the feature is not exposed to nested guests. This patch series adds
support for nested TSC scaling and allows both L1 and L2 to be scaled
with different scaling factors. That is achieved by "merging" the 01 and
02 values together.

Most of the logic in this series is implemented in common code (by doing
the necessary restructurings), however the patches add support for VMX
only. Adding support for SVM should be easy at this point and Maxim
Levitsky has volunteered to do this (thanks!).

Changelog:

Only patch 9 needs reviewing at this point, but I am re-sending the
whole series as I also applied nitpicks suggested to some of the other
pathces.

v4:
  - Added vendor callbacks for writing the TSC multiplier
  - Moved the VMCS multiplier writes from the VMCS load path to common
    code that only gets called on TSC ratio changes
  - Merged together patches 10 and 11 of v3
  - Applied all nitpick-feedback of the previous versions

v3:
  - Applied Sean's feedback
  - Refactored patches 7 to 10

v2:
  - Applied all of Maxim's feedback
  - Added a mul_s64_u64_shr function in math64.h
  - Added a separate kvm_scale_tsc_l1 function instead of passing an
    argument to kvm_scale_tsc
  - Implemented the 02 fields calculations in common code
  - Moved all of write_l1_tsc_offset's logic to common code
  - Added a check for whether the TSC is stable in patch 10
  - Used a random L1 factor and a negative offset in patch 10
