KVM: SVM: Adjust tsc_offset only if tsc_unstable
The tsc_offset adjustment in svm_vcpu_load is executed unconditionally even if Linux considers the host tsc as stable. This causes a Linux guest detecting an unstable tsc in any case. This patch removes the tsc_offset adjustment if the host tsc is stable. The guest will now get the benefit of a stable tsc too.
