Jeremy Fitzhardinge 688340ea34 Add a sched_clock paravirt_op
The tsc-based get_scheduled_cycles interface is not a good match for
Xen's runstate accounting, which reports everything in nanoseconds.

This patch replaces this interface with a sched_clock interface, which
matches both Xen and VMI's requirements.

In order to do this, we:
   1. replace get_scheduled_cycles with sched_clock
   2. hoist cycles_2_ns into a common header
   3. update vmi accordingly

One thing to note: because sched_clock is implemented as a weak
function in kernel/sched.c, we must define a real function in order to
override this weak binding.  This means the usual paravirt_ops
technique of using an inline function won't work in this case.

/* Accellerators for sched_clock()
* convert from cycles(64bits) => nanoseconds (64bits)
* basic equation:
* ns = cycles / (freq / ns_per_sec)
* ns = cycles * (ns_per_sec / freq)
* ns = cycles * (10^9 / (cpu_khz * 10^3))
* ns = cycles * (10^6 / cpu_khz)
*
* Then we use scaling math (suggested by george@mvista.com) to get:
* ns = cycles * (10^6 * SC / cpu_khz) / SC
* ns = cycles * cyc2ns_scale / SC
*
* And since SC is a constant power of two, we can convert the div
* into a shift.
*
* We can use khz divisor instead of mhz to keep a better percision, since
* cyc2ns_scale is limited to 10^6 * 2^10, which fits in 32 bits.
