KVM: x86: Reset tsc_timestamp on TSC writes

There is no upstream commit ID for this patch since it is not a straight
backport from upstream. It is a fix only relevant to 2.6.32.y.

Since 1d5f066e from 2.6.37 was
back-ported to 2.6.32.40 as ad2088ca,
the following patch is needed to add the needed reset logic to 2.6.32 as
well.


Bug #23257: Reset tsc_timestamp on TSC writes

vcpu->last_guest_tsc is updated in vcpu_enter_guest() and kvm_arch_vcpu_put()
by getting the last value of the TSC from the guest.
On reset, the SeaBIOS resets the TSC to 0, which triggers a bug on the next
call to kvm_write_guest_time(): Since vcpu->hw_clock.tsc_timestamp still
contains the old value before the reset, "max_kernel_ns = vcpu->last_guest_tsc
- vcpu->hw_clock.tsc_timestamp" gets negative. Since the variable is u64, it
 gets translated to a large positive value.

max_kernel_ns               =6_148_296_831_006_663_830 ←

For completeness, here are the values for my 3 GHz CPU:
vcpu->hv_clock.tsc_shift         =-1
vcpu->hv_clock.tsc_to_system_mul =2_863_019_502

This makes the guest kernel crawl very slowly when clocksource=kvmclock is
used: sleeps take way longer than expected and don't match wall clock any more.
The times printed with printk() don't match real time and the reboot often
stalls for long times.

In linux-git this isn't a problem, since on every MSR_IA32_TSC write
vcpu->arch.hv_clock.tsc_timestamp is reset to 0, which disables above logic.
The code there is only in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c, since much of the kvm-clock
related code has been refactured for 2.6.37:
