kvmclock: add a new function to update env->tsc.WW-2015-52
(Back port from upstream, commit id: 0fd7e098db30e302d27920487f0afec)
The commit 317b0a6d8 fixed an issue which caused by the outdated
env->tsc value, but the fix lead to 'cpu_synchronize_all_states()'
called twice during live migration. The 'cpu_synchronize_all_states()'
takes about 130us for a VM which has 4 vcpus, it's a bit expensive.
Synchronize the whole CPU context just for updating env->tsc is too
wasting, this patch use a new function to update the env->tsc.
Comparing to 'cpu_synchronize_all_states()', it only takes about 20us.
