[ Upstream commit 0af3e137c1 ]
hyperv_timer.c exports hyperv_cs, which is used by stimers and the
timesync mechanism. However, the clocksource dependency is not
needed: these mechanisms only depend on the partition reference
counter (which can be read via a MSR or via the TSC Reference Page).
Introduce the (function) pointer hv_read_reference_counter, as an
embodiment of the partition reference counter read, and export it
in place of the hyperv_cs pointer. The latter can be removed.
This should clarify that there's no relationship between Hyper-V
stimers & timesync and the Linux clocksource abstractions. No
functional or semantic change.

There is no particular reason to not enable TSC page clocksource on
32-bit. mul_u64_u64_shr() is available and despite the increased
computational complexity (compared to 64bit) TSC page is still a huge win
compared to MSR-based clocksource.
In-kernel reads:
MSR based clocksource: 3361 cycles
TSC page clocksource: 49 cycles
Reads from userspace (utilizing vDSO in case of TSC page):
MSR based clocksource: 5664 cycles
TSC page clocksource: 131 cycles
Enabling TSC page on 32bits allows to get rid of CONFIG_HYPERV_TSCPAGE as
it is now not any different from CONFIG_HYPERV_TIMER.

Hyper-V guests use the default native_sched_clock() in
pv_ops.time.sched_clock on x86. But native_sched_clock() directly uses the
raw TSC value, which can be discontinuous in a Hyper-V VM.
Add the generic hv_setup_sched_clock() to set the sched clock function
appropriately. On x86, this sets pv_ops.time.sched_clock to read the
Hyper-V reference TSC value that is scaled and adjusted to be continuous.
Also move the Hyper-V reference TSC initialization much earlier in the boot
process so no discontinuity is observed when pv_ops.time.sched_clock
calculates its offset.

Prepare to add Hyper-V sched clock callback and move Hyper-V Reference TSC
initialization much earlier in the boot process. Earlier initialization is
needed so that it happens while the timestamp value is still 0 and no
discontinuity in the timestamp will occur when pv_ops.time.sched_clock
calculates its offset.
The earlier initialization requires that the Hyper-V TSC page be allocated
statically instead of with vmalloc(), so fixup the references to the TSC
page and the method of getting its physical address.
