KVM: x86: use raw clock values consistently

Commit 53fafdbb8b21f ("KVM: x86: switch KVMCLOCK base to monotonic raw
clock") changed kvmclock to use tkr_raw instead of tkr_mono.  However,
the default kvmclock_offset for the VM was still based on the monotonic
clock and, if the raw clock drifted enough from the monotonic clock,
this could cause a negative system_time to be written to the guest's
struct pvclock.  RHEL5 does not like it and (if it boots fast enough to
observe a negative time value) it hangs.

There is another thing to be careful about: getboottime64 returns the
host boot time with tkr_mono frequency, and subtracting the tkr_raw-based
kvmclock value will cause the wallclock to be off if tkr_raw drifts
from tkr_mono.  To avoid this, compute the wallclock delta from the
current time instead of being clever and using getboottime64.
