Changes since v2:
- "x86/hyperv: Add HV_INVARIANT_TSC_EXPOSED define" patch added [Sean]
- "KVM: x86: Introduce CPUID_8000_0007_EDX 'scattered' leaf" [Sean]. 
  Hope I got all that magic right...
- s,hv_invtsc,hv_invtsc_control, [Sean]
- s,should_not_gp,fault_expected, and invert the logic [Sean]
- "KVM: selftests: Convert hyperv_features test to using
  KVM_X86_CPU_FEATURE()" patch added.
- Switch the newly introduced selftest to KVM_X86_CPU_FEATURE [Sean]
- Other minor selftest adjustments [Sean]

Original description:

Normally, genuine Hyper-V doesn't expose architectural invariant TSC
(CPUID.80000007H:EDX[8]) to its guests by default. A special PV MSR
(HV_X64_MSR_TSC_INVARIANT_CONTROL, 0x40000118) and corresponding CPUID
feature bit (CPUID.0x40000003.EAX[15]) were introduced. When bit 0 of the
PV MSR is set, invariant TSC bit starts to show up in CPUID. When the 
feature is exposed to Hyper-V guests, reenlightenment becomes unneeded.

Note: strictly speaking, KVM doesn't have to have the feature as exposing
raw invariant TSC bit (CPUID.80000007H:EDX[8]) also seems to work for
modern Windows versions. The feature is, however, tiny and straitforward
and gives additional flexibility so why not.
