sched/clock, x86/tsc: Rework the x86 'unstable' sched_clock() interface

Wanpeng Li reported that since the following commit:

  acb04058 ("sched/clock: Fix hotplug crash")

... KVM always runs with unstable sched-clock even though KVM's
kvm_clock _is_ stable.

The problem is that we've tied clear_sched_clock_stable() to the TSC
state, and overlooked that sched_clock() is a paravirt function.

Solve this by doing two things:

 - tie the sched_clock() stable state more clearly to the TSC stable
   state for the normal (!paravirt) case.

 - only call clear_sched_clock_stable() when we mark TSC unstable
   when we use native_sched_clock().

The first means we can actually run with stable sched_clock in more
situations then before, which is good. And since commit:

  12907fbb ("sched/clock, clocksource: Add optional cs::mark_unstable() method")

... this should be reliable. Since any detection of TSC fail now results
in marking the TSC unstable.
