[PATCH v2 3/3] target-i386: load the migrated vcpu's TSC rate

[Haozhong Zhang <haozhong.zhang@xxxxxxxxx>]

Set vcpu's TSC rate to the migrated value (if any). If KVM supports TSC
scaling, guest programs will observe TSC increasing in the migrated rate
other than the host TSC rate.

The loading is controlled by a new cpu option 'load-tsc-freq'. If it is
present, then the loading will be enabled and the migrated vcpu's TSC
rate will override the value specified by the cpu option
'tsc-freq'. Otherwise, the loading will be disabled.

The setting of vcpu's TSC rate in this patch duplicates the code in
kvm_arch_init_vcpu(), so we remove the latter one.
