KVM: x86: limit difference between kvmclock updates
kvmclock updates which are isolated to a given vcpu, such as vcpu->cpu
migration, should not allow system_timestamp from the rest of the vcpus
to remain static. Otherwise ntp frequency correction applies to one
vcpu's system_timestamp but not the others.
So in those cases, request a kvmclock update for all vcpus. The worst
case for a remote vcpu to update its kvmclock is then bounded by maximum
nohz sleep latency.
