MIPS: KVM: Rewrite count/compare timer emulation

Previously the emulation of the CPU timer was just enough to get a Linux
guest running but some shortcuts were taken:
 - The guest timer interrupt was hard coded to always happen every 10 ms
   rather than being timed to when CP0_Count would match CP0_Compare.
 - The guest's CP0_Count register was based on the host's CP0_Count
   register. This isn't very portable and fails on cores without a
   CP_Count register implemented such as Ingenic XBurst. It also meant
   that the guest's CP0_Cause.DC bit to disable the CP0_Count register
   took no effect.
 - The guest's CP0_Count register was emulated by just dividing the
   host's CP0_Count register by 4. This resulted in continuity problems
   when used as a clock source, since when the host CP0_Count overflows
   from 0x7fffffff to 0x80000000, the guest CP0_Count transitions
   discontinuously from 0x1fffffff to 0xe0000000.

Therefore rewrite & fix emulation of the guest timer based on the
monotonic kernel time (i.e. ktime_get()). Internally a 32-bit count_bias
value is added to the frequency scaled nanosecond monotonic time to get
the guest's CP0_Count. The frequency of the timer is initialised to
100MHz and cannot yet be changed, but a later patch will allow the
frequency to be configured via the KVM_{GET,SET}_ONE_REG ioctl
interface.

The timer can now be stopped via the CP0_Cause.DC bit (by the guest or
via the KVM_SET_ONE_REG ioctl interface), at which point the current
CP0_Count is stored and can be read directly. When it is restarted the
bias is recalculated such that the CP0_Count value is continuous.

Due to the nature of hrtimer interrupts any read of the guest's
CP0_Count register while it is running triggers a check for whether the
hrtimer has expired, so that the guest/userland cannot observe the
CP0_Count passing CP0_Compare without queuing a timer interrupt. This is
also taken advantage of when stopping the timer to ensure that a pending
timer interrupt is queued.

This replaces the implementation of:
 - Guest read of CP0_Count
 - Guest write of CP0_Count
 - Guest write of CP0_Compare
 - Guest write of CP0_Cause
 - Guest read of HWR 2 (CC) with RDHWR
 - Host read of CP0_Count via KVM_GET_ONE_REG ioctl interface
 - Host write of CP0_Count via KVM_SET_ONE_REG ioctl interface
 - Host write of CP0_Compare via KVM_SET_ONE_REG ioctl interface
 - Host write of CP0_Cause via KVM_SET_ONE_REG ioctl interface
