Revert "KVM: x86: zero kvmclock_offset when vcpu0 initializes kvmclock system MSR"
Shifting pvclock_vcpu_time_info.system_time on write to KVM system time MSR is a change of ABI. Probably only 2.6.16 based SLES 10 breaks due to its custom enhancements to kvmclock, but KVM never declared the MSR only for one-shot initialization. (Doc says that only one write is needed.) This reverts commit b7e60c5aedd2b63f16ef06fde4f81ca032211bc5. And adds a note to the definition of PVCLOCK_COUNTS_FROM_ZERO.
