kvm: kvmclock: let KVM_GET_CLOCK return whether the master clock is in use

Browse Source 
Userspace can read the exact value of kvmclock by reading the TSC
and fetching the timekeeping parameters out of guest memory.  This
however is brittle and not necessary anymore with KVM 4.11.  Provide
a mechanism that lets userspace know if the new KVM_GET_CLOCK
semantics are in effect, and---since we are at it---if the clock
is stable across all VCPUs.

@ -777,6 +777,17 @@ Gets the current timestamp of kvmclock as seen by the current guest. In
conjunction with KVM_SET_CLOCK, it is used to ensure monotonicity on scenarios
such as migration.
When KVM_CAP_ADJUST_CLOCK is passed to KVM_CHECK_EXTENSION, it returns the
set of bits that KVM can return in struct kvm_clock_data's flag member.
The only flag defined now is KVM_CLOCK_TSC_STABLE. If set, the returned
value is the exact kvmclock value seen by all VCPUs at the instant
when KVM_GET_CLOCK was called. If clear, the returned value is simply
CLOCK_MONOTONIC plus a constant offset; the offset can be modified
with KVM_SET_CLOCK. KVM will try to make all VCPUs follow this clock,
but the exact value read by each VCPU could differ, because the host
TSC is not stable.
