[v3,02/12] KVM: x86: Refactor tsc synchronization code

Commit Message

Oliver Upton July 19, 2021, 6:49 p.m. UTC

Refactor kvm_synchronize_tsc to make a new function that allows callers
to specify TSC parameters (offset, value, nanoseconds, etc.) explicitly
for the sake of participating in TSC synchronization.

This changes the locking semantics around TSC writes. Writes to the TSC
will now take the pvclock gtod lock while holding the tsc write lock,
whereas before these locks were disjoint.
