This function is needed for the nested TSC scaling code where we need to
multiply the signed TSC offset with the unsigned TSC multiplier.

s/the nested/KVM's nested virtualization.  Non-KVM folk will have no idea what
"nested" means without context.  They may know not what nested virtualization is,
but this will at least give them a starting point for asking the right questions.
