x86: KVM guest: Try using new kvm clock msrs
We now added a new set of clock-related msrs in replacement of the old ones. In theory, we could just try to use them and get a return value indicating they do not exist, due to our use of kvm_write_msr_save. However, kvm clock registration happens very early, and if we ever try to write to a non-existant MSR, we raise a lethal #GP, since our idt handlers are not in place yet. So this patch tests for a cpuid feature exported by the host to decide which set of msrs are supported.
