KVM: x86: Fix kvmclock bug

If preempted after kvmclock values are updated, but before hardware
virtualization is entered, the last tsc time as read by the guest is
never set.  It underflows the next time kvmclock is updated if there
has not yet been a successful entry / exit into hardware virt.

Fix this by simply setting last_tsc to the newly read tsc value so
that any computed nsec advance of kvmclock is nulled.
