KVM: X86: Make tsc_delta calculation a function of guest tsc



The calculation of the tsc_delta value to ensure a
forward-going tsc for the guest is a function of the
host-tsc. This works as long as the guests tsc_khz is equal
to the hosts tsc_khz. With tsc-scaling hardware support this
is not longer true and the tsc_delta needs to be calculated
using guest_tsc values.
