Subject: [PATCH v9 25/30] KVM: arm64: Sync boot clock with the nVHE/pKVM hyp

Configure the hypervisor tracing clock with the kernel boot clock. For
tracing purposes, the boot clock is interesting: it doesn't stop on
suspend. However, it is corrected on a regular basis, which implies the
need to re-evaluate it every once in a while.
