pvclock: introduce seqcount-like API
The version field in struct pvclock_vcpu_time_info basically implements a seqcount. Wrap it with the usual read_begin and read_retry functions, and use these APIs instead of peppering the code with smp_rmb()s. While at it, change it to the more pedantically correct virt_rmb(). With this change, __pvclock_read_cycles can be simplified noticeably. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
