Eduardo, Jan, Andreas

As we sync 3 months ago, I wait until qemu1.1 done, then re-write patch based on qemu1.1.
Now it's time to re-write my patch based on qemu1.1.

Attached is a RFC patch for exposing tsc deadline timer to guest.
I have checked current qemu1.1 code, and read some emails regarding to cpuid exposing these days.
However, I think I may ignore something (so many discussion :-), so if you think anything wrong, please point out to me.

Thanks,
Jinsong

Subject: [PATCH] Expose tsc deadline timer feature to guest

This patch exposes tsc deadline timer feature to guest if
1). in-kernel irqchip is used, and
2). kvm has emulated tsc deadline timer, and
3). user authorize the feature exposing via -cpu or +/- tsc-deadline
