pvclock: Get rid of __pvclock_read_cycles in function pvclock_read_flags
There is a generic function __pvclock_read_cycles to be used to get both flags and cycles. For function pvclock_read_flags, it's useless to get cycles value. To make this function be more effective, get this variable flags directly in function. Signed-off-by: Minfei Huang <mnghuan@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
