x86/timer.[ch] was moved to the common directory largely unchanged.
x86 specific code now resides in x86/tsc_deadline_timer.c and its
interface was defined in hw/hw_timer.h. The interface defines two
functions: init_hw_timer() and set_hw_timeout() that provides HW
specific initialization and timer interrupt source.
Other than these two functions, the timer module is largely arch
agnostic.

Define LIST_OF_VMX_MSRS which includes a list of MSRs that are visible to
L1 guests if nested virtualization is enabled.
- If CONFIG_NVMX_ENABLED is set, these MSRs are included in
emulated_guest_msrs[].
- otherwise, they are included in unsupported_msrs[].
In this way we can take advantage of the existing infrastructure to
emulate these MSRs.

Allow guest set CR4_VMXE if CONFIG_NVMX_ENABLED is set:
- move CR4_VMXE from CR4_EMULATED_RESERVE_BITS to CR4_TRAP_AND_EMULATE_BITS
so that CR4_VMXE is removed from cr4_reserved_bits_mask.
- force CR4_VMXE to be removed from cr4_rsv_bits_guest_value so that CR4_VMXE
is able to be set.
Expose VMX feature (CPUID01.01H:ECX[5]) to L1 guests whose GUEST_FLAG_NVMX_ENABLED
is set.
Assuming guest hypervisor (L1) is KVM, and KVM uses EPT for L2 guests.
Constraints on ACRN VM.
- LAPIC passthrough should be enabled.
- use SCHED_NOOP scheduler.

TPAUSE, UMONITOR or UMWAIT instructions execution in guest VM cause
a #UD if "enable user wait and pause" (bit 26) of VMX_PROCBASED_CTLS2
is not set. To fix this issue, set the bit 26 of VMX_PROCBASED_CTLS2.
Besides, these WAITPKG instructions uses MSR_IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL. So
load corresponding vMSR value during context switch in of a vCPU.
Please note, the TPAUSE or UMWAIT instruction causes a VM exit if the
"RDTSC exiting" and "enable user wait and pause" are both 1. In ACRN
hypervisor, "RDTSC exiting" is always 0. So TPAUSE or UMWAIT doesn't
cause a VM exit.
Performance impact:
MSR_IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL read costs ~19 cycles;
MSR_IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL write costs ~63 cycles.

Instead of "#include <x86/foo.h>", use "#include <asm/foo.h>".
In other words, we are adopting the same practice in Linux kernel.
