The KVM_HOST_FREQ Kconfig symbol was used by KVM guest kernels to override the timer frequency calculation to a value based on the host frequency. Now that the KVM timer emulation is implemented independent of the host timer frequency and defaults to 100MHz, adjust the working of CONFIG_KVM_HOST_FREQ to match. The Kconfig symbol now specifies the guest timer frequency directly, and has been renamed accordingly to KVM_GUEST_TIMER_FREQ. It now defaults to 100MHz too and the help text is updated to make it clear that a zero value will allow the normal timer frequency calculation to take place (based on the emulated RTC).
