x86: KVM guest: merge CONFIG_KVM_CLOCK into CONFIG_KVM_GUEST
The distinction between CONFIG_KVM_CLOCK and CONFIG_KVM_GUEST is not so clear anymore, as demonstrated by recent bugs caused by poor handling of on/off combinations of these options. Merge CONFIG_KVM_CLOCK into CONFIG_KVM_GUEST. Reported-By: OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
