b8ba5f10c5 x86: KVM geust: make setup_secondary_clock definition dependent on local apic
Since the pv_apic_ops are only present if CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC is compiled
in, kvmclock failed to build without this option.  This patch fixes this.

1e977aa12d x86: KVM guest: disable clock before rebooting.
This patch writes 0 (actually, what really matters is that the
LSB is cleared) to the system time msr before shutting down
the machine for kexec.

Without it, we can have a random memory location being written
when the guest comes back

It overrides the functions shutdown, used in the path of kernel_kexec() (sys.c)
and crash_shutdown, used in the path of crash_kexec() (kexec.c)

790c73f628 x86: KVM guest: paravirtualized clocksource
This is the guest part of kvm clock implementation
It does not do tsc-only timing, as tsc can have deltas
between cpus, and it did not seem worthy to me to keep
adjusting them.

We do use it, however, for fine-grained adjustment.

Other than that, time comes from the host.
