Subject: [PATCH 11/11] x86/kvm: Silence per-cpu pr_info noise about KVM clocks and steal time

From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@...zon.co.uk>

I made the actual CPU bringup go nice and fast... and then Linux spends
half a minute printing stupid nonsense about clocks and steal time for
each of 256 vCPUs. Don't do that. Nobody cares.
