hyperv_timer.c exports hyperv_cs, which is used by stimers and the
timesync mechanism. However, the clocksource dependency is not
needed: these mechanisms only depend on the partition reference
counter (which can be read via a MSR or via the TSC Reference Page).
Introduce the (function) pointer hv_read_reference_counter, as an
embodiment of the partition reference counter read, and export it
in place of the hyperv_cs pointer. The latter can be removed.
This should clarify that there's no relationship between Hyper-V
stimers & timesync and the Linux clocksource abstractions. No
functional or semantic change.

Hyper-V has historically initialized stimer-based clockevents late in the
process of onlining a CPU because clockevents depend on stimer
interrupts. In the original Hyper-V design, stimer interrupts generate a
VMbus message, so the VMbus machinery must be running first, and VMbus
can't be initialized until relatively late. On x86/64, LAPIC timer based
clockevents are used during early initialization before VMbus and
stimer-based clockevents are ready, and again during CPU offlining after
the stimer clockevents have been shut down.
Unfortunately, this design creates problems when offlining CPUs for
hibernation or other purposes. stimer-based clockevents are shut down
relatively early in the offlining process, so clockevents_unbind_device()
must be used to fallback to the LAPIC-based clockevents for the remainder
of the offlining process. Furthermore, the late initialization and early
shutdown of stimer-based clockevents doesn't work well on ARM64 since there
is no other timer like the LAPIC to fallback to. So CPU onlining and
offlining doesn't work properly.
Fix this by recognizing that stimer Direct Mode is the normal path for
newer versions of Hyper-V on x86/64, and the only path on other
architectures. With stimer Direct Mode, stimer interrupts don't require any
VMbus machinery. stimer clockevents can be initialized and shut down
consistent with how it is done for other clockevent devices. While the old
VMbus-based stimer interrupts must still be supported for backward
compatibility on x86, that mode of operation can be treated as legacy.
So add a new Hyper-V stimer entry in the CPU hotplug state list, and use
that new state when in Direct Mode. Update the Hyper-V clocksource driver
to allocate and initialize stimer clockevents earlier during boot. Update
Hyper-V initialization and the VMbus driver to use this new design. As a
result, the LAPIC timer is no longer used during boot or CPU
onlining/offlining and clockevents_unbind_device() is not called. But
retain the old design as a legacy implementation for older versions of
Hyper-V that don't support Direct Mode.

There is no particular reason to not enable TSC page clocksource on
32-bit. mul_u64_u64_shr() is available and despite the increased
computational complexity (compared to 64bit) TSC page is still a huge win
compared to MSR-based clocksource.
In-kernel reads:
MSR based clocksource: 3361 cycles
TSC page clocksource: 49 cycles
Reads from userspace (utilizing vDSO in case of TSC page):
MSR based clocksource: 5664 cycles
TSC page clocksource: 131 cycles
Enabling TSC page on 32bits allows to get rid of CONFIG_HYPERV_TSCPAGE as
it is now not any different from CONFIG_HYPERV_TIMER.

Hyper-V clock/timer code and data structures are currently mixed
in with other code in the ISA independent drivers/hv directory as
well as the ISA dependent Hyper-V code under arch/x86.
Consolidate this code and data structures into a Hyper-V clocksource driver
to better follow the Linux model. In doing so, separate out the ISA
dependent portions so the new clocksource driver works for x86 and for the
in-process Hyper-V on ARM64 code.
To start, move the existing clockevents code to create the new clocksource
driver. Update the VMbus driver to call initialization and cleanup routines
since the Hyper-V synthetic timers are not independently enumerated in
ACPI.
No behavior is changed and no new functionality is added.
