KVM: x86: perform kvmclock updates in lockstep

KVM: x86: perform kvmclock updates in lockstep

[Marcelo Tosatti]

It is necessary for each vcpus system_timestamp memory copy to be
updated from one sample of the nanosecond kernel clock.

If this is not the case, and NTP changes frequency adjustment, different
vcpus will make use of different time bases.
