kvmclock: fix TSC calibration for nested guests
Inside a nested guest, access to hardware can be slow enough that tsc_read_refs always return ULLONG_MAX, causing tsc_refine_calibration_work to be called periodically and the nested guest to spend a lot of time reading the ACPI timer. However, if the TSC frequency is available from the pvclock page, we can just set X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ and avoid the recalibration. 'refine' operation.
