            Bug ID: 115991
           Summary: tsc_offset is error for hot-plugged vcpu.
           Product: Virtualization
           Version: unspecified
    Kernel Version: 4.5
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: kvm
          Assignee: virtualization_kvm@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: changlimin@h3c.com
        Regression: No

1. when hot plug vcpu, KVM will call kvm_write_tsc set the new vcpu's
tsc_offset to current host tsc. The new vcpu's tsc_offsets is greatly different
from existed vcpu's tsc_offset.

2. For redhat 6.x, the vm will show warning and turn off TSC clock.
kernel: CPU 1 got hotplugged
kernel: kvm-clock: cpu 1, msr 0:282367c1, secondary cpu clock
kernel: TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#1]:
kernel: Measured 150076598781 cycles TSC warp between CPUs, turning off TSC
clock.
kernel: Marking TSC unstable due to check_tsc_sync_source failed

3. I think should set the new vcpu's tsc_offset to kvm->arch.cur_tsc_offset if
host tsc is stable and use_master_clock is true.
