The io_delay() paravirt hook is in no way performance critical and all users
setting it to a different function than native_io_delay() are using an empty
function as replacement.
Allow replacing the hook with a bool indicating whether native_io_delay()
should be called.

Paravirt clock related functions are available in multiple archs.
In order to share the common parts, move the common static keys
to kernel/sched/ and remove them from the arch specific files.
Make a common paravirt_steal_clock() implementation available in
kernel/sched/cputime.c, guarding it with a new config option
CONFIG_HAVE_PV_STEAL_CLOCK_GEN, which can be selected by an arch
in case it wants to use that common variant.

VCPU_RESERVED and LEGACY_X2APIC are not VMware hypercall commands. These are
bits in the return value of the VMWARE_CMD_GETVCPU_INFO command. Change
VMWARE_CMD_ prefix to GETVCPU_INFO_ one. And move the bit-shift
operation into the macro body.

Introduce a vmware_hypercall family of functions. It is a common implementation
to be used by the VMware guest code and virtual device drivers in architecture
independent manner.
The API consists of vmware_hypercallX and vmware_hypercall_hb_{out,in}
set of functions analogous to KVM's hypercall API. Architecture-specific
implementation is hidden inside.
It will simplify future enhancements in VMware hypercalls such as SEV-ES and
TDX related changes without needs to modify a caller in device drivers code.
Current implementation extends an idea from
bac7b4e843 ("x86/vmware: Update platform detection code for VMCALL/VMMCALL hypercalls")
to have a slow, but safe path vmware_hypercall_slow() earlier during the boot
when alternatives are not yet applied. The code inherits VMWARE_CMD logic from
the commit mentioned above.
Move common macros from vmware.c to vmware.h.

In order to use sched_clock() from noinstr code, mark it and all it's
implenentations noinstr.
The whole pvclock thing (used by KVM/Xen) is a bit of a pain,
since it calls out to watchdogs, create a
pvclock_clocksource_read_nowd() variant doesn't do that and can be
noinstr.

VMWARE_CMD_VCPU_RESERVED is bit 31 and that would mean undefined
behavior when shifting an int but the kernel is built with
-fno-strict-overflow which will wrap around using two's complement.
Use the BIT() macro to improve readability and avoid any potential
overflow confusion because it uses an unsigned long.

Pull x86 vmware guest update from Borislav Petkov:
"Have vmware guests skip the refined TSC calibration when the TSC
frequency has been retrieved from the hypervisor"

x86/vmware: Avoid TSC recalibration when frequency is known
The time pvops functions are the only ones left which might be
used in 32-bit mode and which return a 64-bit value.
Switch them to use the static_call() mechanism instead of pvops, as
this allows quite some simplification of the pvops implementation.

Steal time is the amount of CPU time needed by a guest virtual machine
that is not provided by the host. Steal time occurs when the host
allocates this CPU time elsewhere, for example, to another guest.
Steal time can be enabled by adding the VM configuration option
stealclock.enable = "TRUE". It is supported by VMs that run hardware
version 13 or newer.
Introduce the VMware steal time infrastructure. The high level code
(such as enabling, disabling and hot-plug routines) was derived from KVM.
