Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: x86: Use x86_get_cpufreq_khz to get frequency for kvmclock

# Ignore previous [PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: x86: use x86_get_freq to get freq for kvmclock, and remove this line

If the host side supports APERF&MPERF feature, the guest side may get
mismatched frequency.

KVM uses x86_get_cpufreq_khz() to get the same frequency for guest side.
