Get rid of complex shadow monotonic timekeeper support in KVM.
Extend and use timekeeper infrastructure instead.
Make kvm-clock stable in L2 using the changed timekeeper
I see this patch as two logical changes:
1) refactoring that drops host time caching (gtod)
2) stable kvmclock for L2 when L1 is using kvmclock
Doing it in two patches would definitely be nicer and would allow us to
focus on the (less controversial) L2 enablement.
I just realized that (2) has more complex dependency on (1): we'd need
extra code to get boot_ns from TSC via kvmclock, so deciding the
refactoring first was a good call.
I agree and will return with the set of patches shortly.
Thanks for reviewing!
